RECRUITING TAKES PLACE IN PEOPLES     
 YARDS, OR OUTSIDE STORES, OR WITH  A BIT 
        OF VIOLENCE AND TRICKERY.         
                                          
 THROW  THE   FOURLEGGERS  INTO   A  VAN. 
 DECODE THEM.  SORT THEM BY  SPECIES  AND 
                  TASTE.                  
                                          
 DECORATE  THE  DOG,  DECORATE  THE  DOGS 
 MIND,  UPSIZE  THE PAWS,  OR  THE  WHOLE 
  CREATURE, FRAME A BURROUGHS PORTRAIT,   
 SING A TUNE  ABOUT BEING BROUGHT TO YOUR 
 ROADS END AND REBORN  AS SOMETHING ELSE. 
                                          
 YOU   CAN'T    GO    THE    SAME    WAY, 
   UNFORTUNATELY, THOUGH ANOTHER PATH IS  
 OPEN.  A GRIMIER, GRAINIER, MORE PAINFUL 
 APPROACH.  HOPEFULLY BLISS IS AT THE END 
 OF  IT, BUT I  DON'T  KNOW.  MIGHT  JUST 
 RUIN  YOU.  WILL   PROBABLY  RUIN   YOU.
