HOW DID HE KNOW I GOT IT FOR HIM?
ME: Look, Captain! A plastic-wrapped nail file shaped like a foot!
THE DOG: What. No. That's weird.
ME: No seriously, it's not to hurt you with, it's awesome! It's a nail file shaped like a foot!
THE DOG: It's a thing of unfathomable horror, such that I cannot look upon it but I am clutched in the grip of cosmic, gibbering madness. Throw it out.
ME: Here, I'll unwrap it so you can sniff it for yourself.
THE DOG: *slinks off to cower in his kennel for the next year*
