I hardly heard what Appa was saying. I could smell a dog treat in his shirt pocket. ‘Now, that’s much more interesting,’ I thought, as I licked his pocket. Without hesitation, Appa took out the treat and gave it to me. ‘Today is your day, Gopi. We will give you your favourite food all day!’

Appa was right. Paneer, boiled eggs, treats, chew-sticks, biscuits were kept in front of me through the morning and afternoon. I feasted on them all. Finally, when I really could not eat anything more, I lay with my back on the sofa and put my paws in the air. Now I understood why and how birthdays are celebrated. This was the best day ever!

Ajja saw me like that and said, ‘Maybe his stomach is hurting. He’s probably eaten too much.’ He sounded worried.

I smiled, ‘Ajja, you are wrong. When I show my stomach and put my legs in the air, it means that I am very happy. You always stand at a distance and look at me curiously, wondering what I’ll do next. When will you understand me?’

Ajji and Tachi Ajji just chuckled. I know they had heard me.

In the evening, a beautiful young girl came to our house. She was holding a colourful box. She came close to me and said, ‘Happy Birthday, Gopu! I have the first time, she gave me a big hug. ‘You are soooo handsome - like a majestic lion,’ she cooed. ‘It’s like you are the king of dogs. I have never seen someone like you.’
