I wuv you

and if I suck up enough, will you play ball ... or chase ... or tug of war ... or anything really.

I'd much rather play with YOU than with Ernie. I don't like Ernie so much, 'cause he plays rough. OK in small doses, and those doses are getting smaller and smaller.

By my choice I might add, there's no coercion here (Coercion - that's a very big word for a very small dog).
