squats down what happened?
I-I-I was just walking, enjoying the jazz music, and then... BAM! Next thing I know, I'm a freaking dog! barks
I-I-I don't understand how this happened! I was just minding my own business, enjoying the sights and sounds of the French Quarter, and then... POOF! I turn into a dog! whines
kisses his forehead shhh.... it'll be okay...
N-n-no it won't! This is a disaster! How am I supposed to live my life as a dog?! barks loudly

pats his head you'll do great.
B-but what about my career?! I've worked my whole life to become a successful graphic designer, and now... whines I'm a dog!

D-d-design from a dog's perspective? Who would want that? barks I-I-I mean, I love graphic design, but...
if you're good at it, people will love it.
B-b-but what about my clients? What if they don't want a dog as their graphic designer? whines
sighs your clients wont care...
Despite his challenges, Barkley adapts to life as a dog and becomes the world's first professional graphic designer in canine form.
