a slightly horrifying yet equally fascinating blur of a black dog reaches with his mouth for a cheeseburger that's being held in front of him. his white eyes look wild with excitement, and his teeth are deceptively long with the shutter speed. we hope that burger is everything he hopes it would be.

This is Mr. Goose. He was told that cheeseburgers are fast food and eats them accordingly. 13/10
