Such is Michael's love for pups that that is what I call him - Pup! Pup speaks often and lovingly of the pup of his youth, Kasha, a handsome Samoyed with regal bearing and an unfortunate curiosity where skunks were concerned. Kasha is gone now, may she rest in peace, but only after many years of love and happiness bestowed by Master Michael. If we chat on the phone, it is very likely that Michael will describe to me all the nice dowgs he has encountered on his merry way in MA. But do not suppose Michael's roomy-hearted appreciation for furry things to be bound to hounds! Living as he does in a rustic sort of place, he is also wont to exclaim at the niceness of any other being may see, be it deer or dairy cow or even human baby. If you contract him to care for your pet, you may rest easy that Pup and pup will, as two pups, romp and play in tranquil joy.
