Fool Me Once ....

Dear Santa,


I am a ball guy.  I know you probably already knew that and all, but just in case my mom tries to sub out my letter to you with one that she actually wrote, I just wanted to say it again.  I am a ball guy. 

And, yes, my favorite ball is a green one.  But it is NOT this green one:

The other day mom and I were playing ball and all of a sudden she tried to pull a fast one on me.  She said it was to improve my health.  She was hoping I would bite into it and love it. But, pfffftttt, NO.  I did not like it.  It was tangy and crunchy, not slimey and perfectly seasoned with saliva and dirt from the floor. 
 
No disrespect to the healthy eaters of the world, but an APPLE is a fruit serving and NOT A BALL under any circumstances, by any stretch of the imagination.

So thank you Santa, for listening.  And for ignoring any letters you might receive from me requesting fruit in my stocking.  Because that would be a fraudulent conveyance of my wishes by my mom.  And that would be naughty on her part, so go ahead and put the fruit in HER stocking if you would.




 
Respectfully submitted,
 
D

  2. Thank goodness you discovered the potential Santy Paws Letter substitution before it was too late. Could have been a disaster Christmas Day otherwise !

  6. Apples are delicious! If you don't like them raw, then tell your human to cut it into thin slices and put it into a pie for you!

  8. Yeah, we're not fruit dogs. We think that was a mean trick AND we think Frankie and Ernie have the right idea.

  9. GREEN BALLS??! Are you sure you shouldn't be seein' a vettie for that??? BOL!!!! OMD, I crack myself up....
    Seriously, that is indeed fraudulent!!! I sure hopes that YOUR letter cancels out HER letter to Santy Paws!
    The only acceptable GREEN foodable is margaritas!!!!! ☺

  10. Duncan why I love apples. If Santa leaves you apples well ship them to me. Why good things come in green like green grass. Maybe you just need to think out of the box.
    Thanks for stopping by my blog

  16. We don't like apples, green or red. But we enjoy chasing oranges around the house and making them squirt orange juice!
