Professional Napper

My dog is a professional napper. No one naps as hard as he does. With one eye open, he furiously snores. Because of his large body, some give him a wide berth. Even though his eye is open, he is asleep. I reassure mailmen, but they stop when they see his size. He weighs one hundred and seven pounds. He is as friendly as an exuberant pony. He’s like my mother, I tell them. Come on ahead! Nothing wakes him up. As they get closer, they begin to tiptoe. Sometimes they will throw my package to me. I think it amusing and amazing. They do not know that you can sleep with an eye open. I know though because my mother used to sleep with both eyes open. I wish I was exaggerating, but this is a true story.
