Hey Dad,

Just your roly-poly bulldog statesman son checkin’ in from Spencerville. Trust me, between Frisbee matches, campaigning for pet rights and dreaming of turning deserts into game parks, I’m as busy as a cat on a hot tin roof. Also, no veggies yet! The Furry Revolution is well on its way, and yes, vacuum cleaners are still the enemy.

Stay tuned for more exploits from our pet paradise!

Brute out.

Listen to the story here

In the sprawling domestic paradise that is Spencerville, a place teeming with our cherished, departed pets, the man-about-town, if you can call a dog a man, is Brutus Bulldog. And let me tell you, Brutus is as stout in character as he is in physique. You’d think he couldn’t leap high enough to nab a Frisbee with that stocky frame, right? But he’ll catch them with such grace, that’d shame a gold-medal gymnast. Speaking of grace, you should see how he stealthily buries the shreds of his gnawed rawhide bones, like a pirate bearing treasure.

Ah, don’t let me get carried away. Gotta drop my morning visit to the Canine Café. Hey, don’t judge! A bulldog needs his coffee like a fish needs water. An extra espresso shot paves the way for a day of political maneuvering. Why it’s ‘The Pet Wing’ out here! Pets running the town, politicians might learn a lesson or two if they drop by here.

Good ol’ Brutus is the bulldog version of a statesman, a perfect blend of muscle and heartache. A typical day? Sunbathing – Brutus loves feeling that warmth seep into his brindle coat, and then we head for a challenging Frisbee match at the Shih Tzu Stadium. His loves his teammates, almost as passionately as he despises felines. “Furry devils!” He calls them.

Then it’s time for some nutrition to keep the statesman going. A quick grab from Sniff ‘n’ Snack or a sit-in meal at the Pup-Peroni does the trick. Don’t dare sneak in some veggies, Brutus would rather go on a hunger strike.

Meetings at ‘The Furry Friends Art Gallery’ follow, where he argues heatedly about pet rights, his detest for vacuum cleaners or his futile attempt at escaping ear cleaning sessions. But ultimately, he knows it’s all worth the fights, all worth the stress.

Next is bonding time with our companion, Rocky. They’re like pieces of a jigsaw titled ‘Friendship.’ Then we head home, with the last of the sunrays bathing the street. Home, to a round of popcorn and upcoming strategies for Spencerville. Caesar, his brother, often joins in but he’s a bit of a Wallflower, you see?

Before he goes to bed, he gazes out towards Dalmatian Desert. Brutus dislikes the scorch, sure, but he also dreams of turning it into something fruitful, maybe a game park, who knows? And as dreams of his future conquests lull him to sleep, I know, Brutus Bulldog is not just a dog, he is Spencerville’s heart, it’s life and everything it stands for – friendship, bravery, all rolled up in his brave, stocky frame. This desert will bloom, I reckon, fraternity prevails. Those who sow with Brutus Bulldog, shall in joy, indeed reap.

The End.
