Remo

Phone conversation:

Me: “Just your dog, Paxie, left now?”

Dan: “I’m afraid so.”

Me: “Did you do it at home”?

Dan: “No, we took Remo to the vet, and he put her down and disposed of the ashes.”

Me: “I’m sorry; Remo had been around a long time.”

Dan: “It’s so quiet around here… .”

Me: “With one dog.”

Dan: “Linda likes it so much she’s made an appointment for me.”
