My old dog, he’s been eatin’ the same food for years. Old Brown Bag, we call it. He likes it, I guess. But I saw this purple dog food bag at the store the other day. Shiny, it was. Got me thinkin’.

Maybe my old boy needs a change. He’s gettin’ up there in years, you know? Just like me. My bones ache, his probably do too. Maybe that purple dog food bag has somethin’ special in it. Somethin’ to help his old joints.
Purple Dog Food Bag Is Good?
They put all sorts of things in dog food these days. Chicken, beef, even that fishy stuff. This purple dog food bag, it had a picture of a happy dog on it. Tail waggin’, tongue out. Looked like he was smilin’. My dog, he don’t smile much anymore. Mostly just sleeps.
I picked up that purple dog food bag. Heavy, it was. Felt like good quality. Not like that cheap stuff that’s mostly air. This felt like it had real food in it. The price, though, that gave me a pause. More than I usually spend.

What’s in the Purple Dog Food Bag?
I looked at the back of that purple dog food bag. Lots of words I didn’t understand. Big words. But I saw “chicken” and “vitamins.” That’s good, right? Dogs need vitamins, just like people. My old bones need good stuff, so does my dog’s bones.
There was somethin’ about “omega” somethin’ in that purple dog food bag. I don’t know what that is. But it sounded fancy. Maybe it’s good for his coat. It’s gettin’ a little dull these days. Used to be shiny, like that purple dog food bag.
And it said “no artificial colors” on that purple dog food bag. That’s good. Don’t want my dog eatin’ fake stuff. Just like I don’t want to eat fake stuff. We both need real food. To keep us goin’.
Should I Buy the Purple Dog Food Bag?
I stood there in the store, starin’ at that purple dog food bag for a long time. People were walkin’ around me. Probably thinkin’ I was crazy. Old lady lookin’ at dog food. But I was thinkin’ about my dog. My good old dog.
He’s been with me through thick and thin. Always there to greet me when I come home. Even when I’m grumpy. He don’t care. He loves me anyway. I want to take care of him. Like he takes care of me. That purple dog food bag might help.
Maybe that purple dog food bag is just what he needs. A little somethin’ special. To make his last years a little better. A little more comfortable. He deserves it. After all he does for me.

I opened the purple dog food bag. Smelled different. Stronger. I poured some into his bowl. He sniffed it. Looked at me. Sniffed it again. Then, he started to eat. Slowly at first, then faster. He ate the whole bowl! That purple dog food bag, it was a hit!
He seems to have more pep in his step since I switched to the purple dog food bag. Maybe it’s my imagination. But he seems happier. More like his old self. Wags his tail more. Even tries to play a little. I think that purple dog food bag is doin’ him good. It is good for him, and good for me. I like to see him happy.
