“Same old, same old.” 

“Yeah, I guess so,” Rajah got up and yawned loudly. 

“I wonder who makes our dog food!” 

“The same folks that make all animal feed,” Rajah replied in a matter of
fact way. 

“You mean animal recyclers.” 

“They call themselves animal renderers,” replied Rajah. 

“Do they cook all animal parts?” 

“Everything from bones to chicken beaks, from tails to tongues, from
hoofs to ears,” Rajah licked his upper lip to keep it moist. 

“You mean cow hide and pig fat.” 

“You said it right,” replied Rajah. “I hope they don't cook dead dogs
and cats.” 

“Sadly I know a factory in Los Angeles that specializes in cooking dead
dogs and cats,” Rajah shook his head. 

“Disgusting.” “Hope it won't find its way into our food,” Rani looked
worried. 

“I don't know, I hope not”, Rajah got up slowly for lunch. “Well, here
we go for lunch,” Rani got herself up and walked slowly, scratching 
mouth with her forepaw. 

Rajah followed her with his dangling large ears. After having lunch and
a short nap Rajah and Rani continued their chat. 

“Well, we serve as a guard dogs besides helping visually impaired on the
streets, rescue people from disasters, help hunters and ranchers and 
sniff out drugs to fight crime,” Rajah was still thinking other 
benefits that dogs bring to the people. 

“And baby sit in some families,” added Rani. 

“I read recently that we can even sniff out cancers in human.” 

“Really, then how come we cannot sniff out evil in the people?”
questioned Rani. 

“Don't think that far, if we could sniff out inhuman, immoral and wrong
doers, we end up with no masters to take care of us,” warned Rajah. 

“Don't we make people feel good for chicken feed?” 

“You mean dog food,” corrected Rajah. 

“You said all animal feed come from the same source, dead animals, so
what it makes different, chicken feed or dog food.” 

“True.” 

I believe we the dogs shall call ourselves therapists,” declared Rajah. 

“For crying out loud, we are full-time free therapists for the people.”
Rani barked out loud. 

“Sure we are 24/7 free therapists working for chicken feed,” sighed
Rajah.
