My German Shepherd Ruined My Nice New Suit, But It Was Worth It

I was getting dressed to go to a business meeting in my nice new suit, which I hate wearing anyway, when I heard a loud crash from the living room. I ran to see what happened, and there was my German Shepherd, Moose, covered in mud and water, running into the house. He had been playing in the mud outside and had gotten himself all disgusting. Of course, he ran right through the house and into the bedroom, where I was getting dressed. His muddy paws all over my bed and clothes! I was so mad! (well, maybe a little more than mad)

But then I started to laugh. I mean, it was kind of funny, right? My dog, Moose, covered in mud and water, running into the house and ruining my nice new suit. I couldn't help but laugh. And then Moose started to laugh too. He wagged his tail and licked my face. And then we both laughed some more.

So, even though I had to clean up Moose and my clothes, and even though I was late for my meeting, I still had a good laugh. And that's what's important, right?

Moral of the story: Even when things go wrong, it's important to laugh. A good laugh can make everything better.
