Hey Mom, it’s Bubbie!🐾Just another day being a star in Spencerville – ruling the park, working at the bistro (sans yogurt!), surviving the dreaded clown at the bakery, ending the day under starlight with my ‘baby.’ Miss you! Love, CJ

Listen to the story here

Now, there I was, a breezy, tail-wagging, canine citizen of Spencerville, trotting down the bustling streets of this perfect pet paradise. They call me CJ – short for Canine Jack-of-all-trades. I’ve nailed the endearing underbite look and have a personality that can pack a punch, well heavier than my 17 lbs.

I’m heading to Golden Gate Gardens, my usual haunt each morning. It’s a place of bliss for us tail-waggers. But listen, don’t mistake me for one of those prissy park pets. I’m more of the rugged, stray Pomeranian type – all excitement and adventure, zipping around, exploring. Even with short legs, I make my mark, my bark echoing through the park.

Off to work at Bow Wow Bistro, sporting my swanky doggie bowtie from The Tail Wagger’s Tailor. It’s a bustling place, furry patrons enjoying their meals to the clatter of cutlery and the chatter of assorted barks. I’m a big fan of the Bistro’s special – jerky. Big surprise, right? But don’t you dare serve me yogurt. My tongue goes into a full-blown rebellion at the sight of it.

A part of being Spencerville’s top dog means avoiding all contact with liquid. Swimming is as horrifying to me as a visit to the vet. It runs contrary to the canine credo I live by – enjoying a car ride, ear scratches (not cleaning, mind you!) and indulging in long cuddle sessions with my pals.

But let me tell you about the worst bit of my day, the Big Scare – The Woofy Bakery. Now I know what you’re thinking: “CJ, a bakery, really?” But hear me out. It’s not the bakery per se, but the clown statue outside. Yes, you heard that right, a clown. It’s as unnerving as having a cat chasing you. Imagine that horror!

After the terrifying clown encounter, my day ends with soothing cuddles, and I reach for my “baby”, a stuffed toy that’s been my lifelong confidant. As dusk blankets Spencerville, you’ll find me sprawled under the Spencervillian starlight, reflecting on my day – the highs, the lows, and all the barks in between.

In this utopian pet town of Spencerville, I live each day to the fullest, living the canine dream. Each day is another page in the ongoing legend of my life and let me tell you, it’s nothing short of pawsome! Here in Spencerville, we’re all about the waiting, and wait I will, until the day I get to unlock my human’s front door again. Until then, I’m CJ, the small dog with a big personality, and this has been another day in my Spencerville tale.

The End.
