With the girls gone, Martin and Milo were left alone in the front of the store. Martin pointed to a yellow puppy behind Milo.
"Milo, that little guy has been following you around since we got here. What kind of animal is that?" he asked rhetorically.
"A dog!" Milo replied, excited.
Martin bent down to his son's level. "Can you spell dog?"
"D-O-G."
The dog, excited to have a human talking to him, jumped up and started licking Milo's face. Milo laughed. Martin laughed too. "I think he likes you, Milo," Martin said with a smile.
The puppy continued wagging his tail and licking Milo all over. Milo continued laughing. Martin went to get his wife and daughter from the other room, as well as the pet store owner.
