In Greek mythology, Pandora was the first woman without parents, who was made by Gods. Each god helped create her by giving her unique gifts. Zeus ordered Hephaestus to mould her out of Earth as part of the punishment of mankind for Prometheus' theft of the secret of fire, and all the gods joined in offering this "beautiful evil" seductive gifts. According to the myth, Pandora opened a jar, which is referred to in modern accounts, as "Pandora's box", releasing all the evils of mankind…
I should have listened closely when manang told me that story.
Oh what a wonderful carton box it was. I bet it is full of delicious grub.
“What? What are you doing inside, Poopie?”
The poor girl ran out screaming. If of fear or joy, I would never know. What could be inside the box? I’m so excited.
Oh, joy… I’m dreaming of treats, toys, even money… there ought to be. It makes perfect sense. Okay… I am hyped now. Time to open the dratted box…
"What? Where are the toys? the treats?!... and what is this shiny thing, manang?"
I shouldn’t have asked.
Pandora had better luck.
Next time, don’t bother coming home, woman.

Oh Aki! At least there were presents for you! Don't be upset about that cone, you will heal in no time! Muah! Love, Dino
Poor Aki, what a letdown! Soap??? But theres's a nice new bowl and leash for you... I hope you feel better soon.
Your pal,

OK Aki, I have a few things to say to you.
First, I agree that such a big box should have had more foodables and chewies for you inside of it. That is not right.
Next, forget about that whole sleeping in the water thing. I had mange and erichliosis when I was a pup and it was yucky. What is it with you retriever dogs and water anyway?
Finally, just for the next few days, do whatever your mom tells you and be careful not to lick yourself too much and maybe the cone will come off.
Slobbers,

oh dear, this is nooo good!!
My big brother Bogart say "Welcome to the Lampshade World!"
I hid Bogart's e-collar myself.
I hid it so no freaking hooman will ever find it and that it will never ever find its way to my head!
Oh, Aki, you will heal in time. Mark my paw. If THAT collar will help you heal, by all means, make the old lady happy ...
I have my 2-hour birthday chat pawty today at YM: 10AM, 3PM and 10PM.
I hate those cone things, soap and harness how boring.
I'm sure there are better days ahead fur woo!

Get well soon Aki!
That collar will be gone in no time. You still look cute with it.
Love,
Charlie
Ummm Aki, ok other than the dreaded E-collar, at least all the other things in the box weren't that bad right? You have a new leash, a new dish.. wow..
Try not to lick or scratch yourself too much and hopefully the cone will come off soon.
**Hugs**
Hi, Aki!
Soap and a headcone?? Hmmm... I don't think they are the most exciting presents but sure they are useful!

Hi Aki!
We've been out of the loop for awhile, and I'm sorry to see you have to wear that great big collar. And then you were disappointed in that big box. I can't help but think that things are bound to get better; just hang in there!
Thank you for the kind words you sent my way during the illness and passing of my grandpa.
Aki, don't your worry! You are handsome enough for that thing, boy! You look cute and boootiful in anything...
That post is awsome.
