Hey Mom,

It’s your Mboy, Malchik! I’ve become the crowned pet of Spencerville, ruling over this bizarre paradise of never-ending squeaky balls and gourmet meals at K9 Cuisine. Sometimes, I miss our thunderstorm huddles and forest trails, but there’s new excitement here. Can’t wait for you to visit, we’ll create our own trails here. Until then, it’s woof and love from your royal boy.

There is something fundamentally perplexing about the phenomenon called – ‘Spencerville’. You see, over here in this idyllic town packed with resorts like Pug Palace, Corgi Castle and Husky Hill and quirky little joints like Pup-Tastic Pizza; you wouldn’t miss a heartbeat. Perhaps it’s the sheer vitality of the place, or maybe it’s the esoteric charm of Canine Couture Clothing and well, The Snooty Snout Boutique. You’d think it’s an improbable paradise but hey, haven’t I just landed to rule it?

They call me Malchik, a sturdy German Shepard/Cane Corso mix. I bet you didn’t see that coming. I bear the wilderness in my DNA with a side order of chicken smeared with peanut butter and strawberries for dessert. Spinach? Please, that’s a hard pass. But this realm of immortality isn’t half as scary as the monstrous thunderstorms and the relentless vacuum back home. Really now, who needs a psychotic machine growling at your heels anyway?

Life here’s got a certain rhythm, a crazy cacophony of bouncing squeaky balls, and dungeon-deep snores from the grand old man himself, Sinbad. But damn, does it miss the subtlety of a quiet moment in the mountains, or the exhilarating embrace of the forest trails? Absolutely. And yet, every moment here is a paradox, my friends. Loneliness, you’d claim, my mortal weakness. But who could be lonely in a town bustling with energetic spirits from each corner?

Oh, Kahkseh, my dear sis! Remember how we tackled thunderstorms with trembling hearts, huddling behind the big bed – our citadel away from home? She is still back there, giving the vacuum cleaner a true Shepherd standoff, while I am here, forced to exchange my antlers for a scepter!

You heard it right, folks. I, Malchik of the Canine Castle, am the well crowned pet. But mark my words, this isn’t a tale of drenching sorrow or despair, it is one of hope and reunion. We know we’re missed, just as we miss. But there are new trails to explore in Spencerville, more squeaky balls to chase, and another round at the royal K9 Cuisine. They say, “Home is where your heart is”, folks. Well, my heart’s with you with each pound of it. But also, in the next squeak, scamper, and shared laughter, it’s here, leading an ethereal life, waiting for the day when we reunite at the golden gates. Until then, it’s a Woof Woof from the paradise. Just remember, you’ve a royal invitation to Spencerville.

The End.
