Hey Mom,

Just another manic Monday at Pawsburg Inc.! Led a meeting like a boss, rebuffed beet salads (our feud continues), and I’ve got the office dogs buzzing about a team-building trip. Can’t wait to swap spreadsheets for Shar-Pei Shores! Paws up for adventure and office shenanigans. 🐾

Wags and kisses,
Maybelline (a.k.a. Louise) 🐶💼✨

So, I waltz into Pawsburg Inc., my nine-to-five gig in our delightful town of Pawsburg. Yes, that’s right, I work in an office – where the water coolers are filled with bone broth and every cubicle comes with a plush dog bed. And trust me, you haven’t seen drama until you’ve seen it play out in canine while the humans are away.

It’s a Monday morning, and the sun’s just done that cute thing where it peeps over the horizon like a shy puppy at a dog park. And here I am, Maybelline the Yorkie, ready to conquer the corporate ladder, one paw at a time.

I sashay past the Groom Room – where the scent of fresh fur-cuts brings all the boys to the yard – and make a beeline for The Pup’s Poutine stand for my usual morning fix. “The usual, please,” I bark to Ralph, the hulking Saint Bernard behind the counter. His drool practically hits the floor when he sees me, but who can blame him?

As I settle at my desk, Max, my retriever colleague, bursts into the office like he’s just discovered fetch. “New toy lines from Pet Partners! They’re supposed to be indestructible,” he pants, eyes glimmering with unsullied hope. Max, darling, no toy is safe in these jaws.

I give him my best it’s-Monday-don’t-make-me-run look when Bella chimes in from the neighboring cubicle, her beagle ears floppy with gossip, “Word around the water bowl is that Canine Couture Clothing is launching a line of business attire! Ties, cufflinks…”

“Kerchiefs, Bella,” I gently correct her. “Kerchiefs are where we’re revolutionizing the market.” Can you even imagine a Yorkie, gorgeous as moi, walking around with cufflinks?

The day goes on. We have a meeting, which I lead with my usual flair, presenting our latest ad campaign to the boss – a gruff bulldog named Mr. Bully who has a soft spot for crisp collars and tennis balls. He grunts his approval just as I’m lulled into a daydream by Onyx Otterhound Oasis, visible from our conference room window. Oh, to be diving into that cool blue water instead of discussing ROI and conversion rates…

Lunchtime rolls around, and yes, I pop over to Puppy Patisserie to grab a chicken-spinach crepe and gingerly turn down Beatrice the Chihuahua’s offer of a beet salad. “Sorry, Beatrice,” I say, “beet slices and I have a longstanding feud.”

Back at the office, I catch Max frisbeating the prototype from Pet Partners – guess they’re still not Maybelline-proof – and Bella sneaking a peek at Pawsburg’s Top Dog Magazine under her desk.

Then, an email pings into my inbox. “Team Building Trip to Opal Pomeranian Park?” I read aloud, and the office erupts. We’re getting out! I can already feel the wind caressing my fur, the green grass under my paws, and the smell of the Shar-Pei Shores in the distance.

I grab my purse from Canine Couture Clothing – where “It’s not just a bag, it’s a lifestyle!” – and head out with my crew, Max’s tail wagging wildly, Bella’s nose twitching with excitement. For today, we’re more than office dogs; we’re adventure-hounds on a mission.

And as I reflect on the day with my friends, surrounded by the charm and magic of our Pawsburg, every wag of my tail tells a story – one of companionship, playfulness, and a little hint of office mischief. Because when you live in Pawsburg, every day is an extraordinary tale in itself.

The End.
