It was a party on the Cape. Beautiful house. A group of politicians, media folks, and their Others. And one, big, wet Golden Retriever.
To be fair, he could have been a happier retriever if only someone had thrown one of his hoarded tennis balls. He had carefully corralled them in the family swimming pool and while the spiffily dressed guests sipped cocktails and munched on sandwiches, he swam in the pool, then dripping he would try to convince someone to throw a sodden tennis ball.
Alas, it was not his lucky day. How to make him understand that even we dog lovers couldn’t embrace so much wet dog dressed in our “nice” clothing?

Cute kid! George and company were too busy with the party to give him any attention. Besides, I think he was there as a crowd pleaser.

I think he was THE pleaser. If he hadn’t been so wet and we so dressed, he could have been the candidate 🙂

No, a friend’s. They have 5 more little pugs, but they were in the house because of over-friendly enthusiasm 🙂 This guy is their senior citizen, and such a sweetie.
