Waldo's Letter

DEAR CINDY,

I WANTED TO WRITE TO YOU PERSONALLY. I THINK THERE MUST BE A MISTAKE IN THIS POODLE SITUATION. LET ME STATE THE FACTS:

MOM LEFT ON THURSDAY WITH EDIE IN TOW TO YOU TO GROOM HER

MOM DID NOT GO BACK AND GET HER, SHE SAID SHE WAS HAVING A SLEEP OVER WITH KAYLEE

THIS SOUNDED A LITTLE STRANGE TO US HERE AT HOME, I MEAN WE KNOW OUR EDIE GIRL

OKAY, ON SATURDAY, SHE TOOK OUT SISSY BOY, JUSTICE AND LET HIM RIDE WITH HER IN THE CAR

SHE GAVE ME THE LAME EXCUSE THAT SINCE I WENT TO UNCLE GREG'S ON CHRISTMAS DAY, THAT JUSTICE WAS ENTITLED TO A CAR RIDE

WHEN THEY RETURNED HOME, A NEW POODLE CAME WITH THEM

YES, THE POODLE IS THE SAME SEX AS EDIE, THE SAME COLOR, AND THE SAME SIZE

MOM SAID IT WAS EDIE, AND SHE DID SEEM TO KNOW ALL OF US, SHE KNEW WHERE JUSTICE HAD BONES HIDDEN, SHE KNEW HOW TO LOOK IN THE WINDOWS AT MOM, AND SHE KNEW HER WAY AROUND THE HOUSE

BUT

THIS POODLE HAS MORE CONFIDENCE, SHE CERTAINLY SMELLS BETTER, BUT, MOST OF ALL, SHE DOES NOT LOOK LIKE OUR EDIE POODLE. SHE CAME HOME WITH BOWS IN HER HAIR. SHE HAS A LONG NOSE, NAKED LEGS, A BIG POM POM ON HER TAIL. AND SHE CAME HOME LEASH BROKEN TOO.

CINDY, ARE YOU ABSOLUTEY SURE THAT THIS IS OUR POODLE? WE WILL ALL UNDERSTAND IF FOR SOME REASON, YOU GOT THIS DOG MESSED UP WITH SOMEONE ELSE'S POODLE. MISS BUTTONS TELLS ME SHE HAS SEEN LOTS OF POODLES FIXED UP LIKE THIS AT DOG SHOWS. BUT SHE THOUGHT THEY WERE BORN LIKE THAT.

MOM IS LETTING THIS DOG HAVE MORE FREE REIN IN THE HOUSE. WE ALL KNOW MOM HAS BEEN WORKING REALLY HARD LATELY AND IS PRETTY TIRED. I MEAN, SHE HAD JUSTICE WITH HER, SO I WAS NOT THERE TO DOUBLE CHECK THINGS. IT IS AMAZING SHE EVEN GOT TO YOUR SHOP WITHOUT ME RIDING SHOTGUN. I WANTED TO WRITE TO YOU SOONER, BUT THINGS HAVE BEEN HECTIC AROUND HERE. THESE LITTLE VARMINTS CALLED YORKIES ARE TAKING UP A LOT OF TIME. MOM IS EXCITED THAT THEY ARE EATING SCRAMBLED EGGS NOW. MOM REALLY NEEDS TO GET OUT MORE AND HAVE A LIFE.

WELL, I AM GOING TO GET OFF OF HERE. I CAN HIRE A PRIVATE INVESTIGATOR IF YOU WANT ME TOO. ETHEL IS REALLY GOOD AND SNIFFING OUT SOLUTIONS AND ANSWERS. SHE IS JUSTICE'S SISTER. SOMETIMES SHE GETS LUCY TO HELP TOO. LUCY IS A SISTER TO ETHEL AND JUSTICE TOO. LUCY CAN BE A SCATTERBRAIN AT TIMES. THEIR MOM IS ZIPPER. SHE IS REALLY TOUGH.

JUST LET ME KNOW.

LOVE,

WALDO
