Am I next?
This dog saw the puppy doll in the washing machine and suspected he was next to go. Some dog breeds are intelligent and perceptive, but others are more of a pretty face with not much inside (we don’t want to sound mean, but you know the breeds we’re talking about). All dogs are sweet and have good intentions, but they aren’t all the smartest tools in the shed.
This dog, for example, saw the puppy in the washing machine and thought it was a real dog. We can see how it could be a startling sight, but doesn’t he recognize it’s a fluffy toy and not a real dog? He sweet soul probably wants to get in there and help save his friend.
