"I love you very much, " said Jimmy to his pet pup, hugging the animal .

"Are you sure?" said the pup.

"Of course I'm sure "' said the boy .

"Well just as long as you know I 'm only a puppy and only capable of LUV or LUB, not LOVE like a man . I only play around . "

"Oh, well, you're my best friend, anyhow."

The little pup yelped and wagged his tail.
