Your pup asked us here at A Wells Trained Dog to transcribe this to you:

Dear Mom and Dad,

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
DO NOT TAKE ME TO THE FIRE WORKS OR THE INDEPENDENCE DAY PARADE!

THE LOUD BOOMS OF THE FIREWORKS, AND THE HORNS AND DRUMS OF THE BANDS HURT MY SENSITIVE EARS. THE SUDDEN FLARES OF THE ROCKETS SCARE ME.  I LOVE BEING WITH YOU AND WILL PUT UP WITH ALMOST ANYTHING FOR THAT, BUT I DO NOT ENJOY THESE ACTIVITIES.

PLEASE SHOW ME HOW MUCH YOU LOVE ME BY LEAVING ME HOME WITH THE TELEVISION TUNED TO  KPBS (TV IS BETTER THAN RADIO),  WITH SOME TOYS AND WATER AND A STUFFED KONG TOY OR TWO FOR ME TO PLAY WITH.

WHEN YOU COME HOME STAY WITH ME WHEN YOU LET ME OUT FOR POTTY BREAK.  THERE MAY BE SOME RESIDUAL FIREWORKS AND I AM PRETTY GOOD AT GETTING OVER OR UNDER FENCES WHEN FRIGHTENED.

PUPPY KISSES,

YOUR PUP.
