A Dog's Eye View
Our dear canine friend Sidi has sent his Pack Friends a short story. It's not like his usual offerings, but I present it anyway with my regards and best wishes.

Summary: Sidi is Orlando Bloom’s dog
A short story by Sidi, as told to Pecos
I was Outside on that day, and it wasn’t very long ago. Maybe just before today, or a little before that. I was a Happy Dog! then because my Alpha had brought me back to Lost Angeles Den from the Hot Place where the air felt all heavy and Wrong. We rode away in a Airplane from that Place, you know, but when we got to our Den the air was Okay again, except for the usual Stink, so I didn’t Worry about it being Wrong anymore.
I remember being Outside because there was a cool place to lie under the bushes and I was Hot from digging holes and pulling the Hose Monster around the grass. I had found an old Toy! that I must have left there the last time and it was a Good Thing that the Guys Who Come in the Truck didn’t steal it when they came to pick up shits and cut grass and move stuff around. You gotta keep an eye on those guys!
Anyhow, I’m getting distracted from my real story, which took place just a while ago, not a long time. I got Hot even in the shade under those bushes (which had got cut up some from the Truck Guys) so I went Inside the Den through the Door that gets left open for Sidi! and I drank lots of good clean water from my Bowl. Then I went to find my Alpha Male in case he needed to be woke up with the Cold Nose. Sometimes he falls asleep again after he sends me Outside in the morning so I can check for Bad Guys and do Important Stuff in the yard.
My Alpha wasn’t in the bed, although it still smelled of him and his own personal scent. He wasn’t in the people piss room either, but he had made water come down to wash. I licked up all the drops on the floor and rolled around for a while on a towel he’d dropped. This made me smell a little bit like my Alpha Male, which always makes me Happy, so my tail was wagging as I went around the Den looking for him. I found him sitting on the floor in front of the moving pictures box, and as soon as I got close I knew that Something was Wrong!
This means that my tail went between my legs and I put my muzzle down and said ‘Sorry!’ with my whole body in case it was Something the Dog Did. You never know what it was really that gets you into Trouble, because as the Second Alpha Dog in this pack I do So Much stuff!, but this time I really couldn’t remember doing anything that might make my Alpha Sad. I whined and crept closer, and then he reached out and let me into his arms, like I was puppy again, and I could see that he had Sad Water on his face from his eyes.
He only makes Sad Water when it’s Really, Really Bad. Not like ‘Bad Dog!’ Bad, but more like Why Don’t You Love Me? Bad. I licked his hands and he petted me, but there was even more stuff wrong because he just kept muttering words to himself and shaking his head at the pictures. Then his Noisy Box made its sound and he picked it up and talked to it. He said Viggo’s name, and some of the Hobbits too. He poked the buttons and talked more to other Noisy Boxes, and he said his Dam’s name. I think he was telling them a story about where he was and finding out where his other Pack Members were. He talked for a long time.
I looked at the Moving Pictures box, but it was boring pictures of people talking and little boxes in sparkly stuff and it didn’t get exciting. There was some moving around things, but they just went by like ‘woosh!’ and were gone again. Nothing in there was worth getting a Bad Feeling, unless you don’t like boring pictures. My Alpha likes them most of the time, especially the ones that Viggo makes. I whined because I didn’t want the pictures to make my Alpha Sad. He hugged me, and then told me to ‘go lie down!’, which usually means he’s got Other Stuff to do.
There’s No Other Stuff more important than being with your Dog Pack, especially if Bad Stuff is happening, so I went away just for long enough to Obey without really doing it. Then I came back and made Sorry! again, and he petted me some more and let me lick his cheek. This went on for a really long time, and there were no Happy Smiles or Playing or Treats!, and I was Sad too with my Alpha Male Orlando.
So that’s my story about the Sad Water Day.
I wish I wasn’t only a Dog, and I could do Stuff to make it better again, but I can only do Dog Things. If you know any Dog Things that would make it Better would you let me know so I can Do that Stuff? I would give you ALL of my Treats and maybe even my Toys! to make it better, and I would Share my Crunchy Good Things with you too. I don’t want my Alpha to be Sad, or anybody else anywhere.
Thank you for listening to my story. I hope it can have a Happy Ending some other time, maybe.

I love this Sidi perspective!
I can't help reading with a smile on my face, even if it is a Sad Water Day and all....

Don't feel bad that you can only do Dog Things. Even people feel bad when the People Things they can do don't feel like nearly enough either to make things better. No one Person - or one Dog - can make all the sadness and hurt go away. Lots of People - and the Dogs (and even Cats!) who love them - working together can make a start. And I wouldn't be surprised if your Alpha Males weren't doing something like that right now, though they'll probably never tell anyone about it, because that's just the way they are.

My Alphas can make anything Better eventually...you just have to stay out of the way under the table for a while so they can make their magic work.

You are the bestest Second Alpha Dog that anyone could want. I'm sending you lots and lots of love.
MWAH.
