Sorry about the tree – Christmas card from the dog
A funny Christmas card from the dog, who is very sorry about the tree. There’s no dog on it, so it works for any breed: just the evidence. On blush pink, a Christmas tree lies on its side with its fairy lights in a tangle, baubles rolling away and a trail of muddy paw prints leaving the scene, under “Merry Christmas. Sorry about the tree.” and a sign-off in the dog’s own handwriting. The back promises that no trees were harmed in the making of this card (well, one), and optional inside pages hold a letter from the dog: it wobbled first, thank you for the walks and the sausages, save me a bit of turkey. Change the dog’s name, the humans’ names and every word to suit your own culprit, for grandparents, the dog walker or the neighbours.

(THE DOG)
Dear all,
About the tree. In my defence, it · wobbled first. I only went to say hello · to the shiny ball, and then the whole · thing had a lie down.
Thank you for the walks round the · mere at Ellesmere, the sausages, · and for pretending not to see me · on the sofa.
Have a very merry Christmas. · Save me a bit of turkey.
AND MY HUMANS, DOROTHEA & GWILYM
No trees were harmed · in the making of this card.
