Said the city puppy to his owners who live in a high rise condo, "I think I want to stay with your parents. There I get all wet in the spring shower and they let me chew on sticks and jump over stones. I run all over your father's body as he rolls around in the grass. And I go exploring in the tall grass and shrubs and sniff all these new, exciting smells. Then I fall smack dab in my bed and dream of blossoms, bugs, and butterflies.
(There is some vague allusion here to Aesop's The City Mouse and the Country Mouse.)
"There once was a mouse who liked his country house until his cousin came for a visit.
"In the city where I live," his cousin said, "we dine on cheese and fish and bread. Each night my dinner is brought to me. I eat whatever I choose. While you, country cousin, work your paws to the bone for humble crumbs in this humble home. I'm used to finery. To each his own, I see!"...
