The governmental requests for the public to isolate seem to have been largely successful, because the store is really empty today, so when two people and their dogs come, our relief at seeing anyone not directly working here translates into them being treated like celebrities.
The dogs seem perfectly thrilled with all the attention - Minnie the Dalmatian, and Goldie the Golden Retriever - especially Goldie when I rub her outrageously soft ears.
When I remark on their superlative fluff, her owner agrees, noting, "They were washed in angels' tears."
I look at the dog's beatific smile as I continue to rub her ears and I ask, "What could this face have done to make an angel cry?"
