> Heh. Many years ago I subscribed to _Glamour_, and they ran a puff piece about pet care. They had a do-and-don’t list that included “don’t feed your dog too many sweet treats!” accompanied by a photo illustration of an Old English Sheepdog wearing a party hat and neckerchief, sitting in front of a big bowl full of ice cream.

> A couple of months later, another puff piece about things you can do with your pet. “Celebrate his birthday!” Same dog. Same party hat. Same ice cream.
