This is the part that made me chortle with loud glee:
Dogs do not make a huge distinction between "fresh-baked apple-cinnamon biscuit" and "their own vomit". -------------- BEDTIME STORIES: They're DOGS! They don't speak ENGLISH! At most, they can be trained to respond to maybe a dozen or so different words, and they're almost ALL VERBS. This makes narrative a challenge.
But not an insurmountable challenge!
Assume dog's name is spot:
Spot sit! Good Spot. Good, good Spot. Spot heel. Spot run. Good, good spot. Spot sic 'em! Spot sic' em! Spot dinner time! Dinner time! Dinner time! Heel. Heel. Sit. Good Spot.
