Stale Pears

Today when I got up, my son, who was already up and watching cartoons, informed me that Archie smells bad...like "stale pears". This initially made me happy because to describe a smelly dog with the words, "stale pears" makes me think someday he will surely be a writer. Then, it made me think eeww-w-w, because Archie walked right up next to me and yes, he did smell like stale pears.....stinky, old, moldy pears. He got a bath today, his first, and now smells like shampoo and Milk Bones...the way a dog should smell.
