Q: We’re here to talk to Mr. Fredricksen’s dog, Dug.
Dug: Hi there! I just met you. You are nice, I like you! Do you have peanut butter?
Q: No, sorry. I don’t have any right now.
Dug: I am on a mission to find some. It is my favorite. Oh, you are tall.
Q: Yes, thanks. So tell me, do you have friends?
Dug: Oh, yes. I have many friends. There’s Alpha. There’s Beta and Gamma and Epsilon…and Theta—I do not like him. He is smells of bugs—and Kappa and Lambda…
Q: Okay…
Dug: Omicron…Sigma. Delta..
Q: I think we’re good. We got it. What I meant was do you have people friends?
Dug: Oh, yes, I like people. People are nice. Like my new master.
Q: Tell me about him.
Dug: Yes, yes, my new master, not like my other master, no. My new master is very nice. He smells of prunes. He found me while I was on a special mission! I was lost and sad in the fog. The fog makes me sad. Then I was happy to find him! He and Russell are very nice. They have a house with balloons. They like my howling and barking. Can you bark? We can bark together like this, “Woof! Bark! Bark!” Do you want to try howling?
Q: I can’t right now but maybe later. Tell me about your special mission?
Dug: Oh, yes. My pack sent me on a special mission all by myself. And when I found my new master and Russell I found the bird! I wanted to take the bird back to our camp and make him my prisoner—SQUIRRELL!-- It was my first time to see the bird up close.
Q: Tell us about your old master.
Dug: He is good and smart my old master. He made me this collar so that I may talk. I am good at talking. I am scratching now. There are fleas. Can you reach under my jaw? I am a good tracker. When I am on a scent I will find what I’m looking for. That’s why my master sends us out—to track the bird. He’s been looking for this bird a long time.
Q: Thank you for talking to us, Dug.
Dug: You are nice. I like you. I am going now. Have you seen the bird? I think I lost the bird and my new master in the trees. The bird is fast and he is tall. You are tall. Do you have any peanut butter?
