Happy 12th Birthday Duke!

[dukedogsmom]

Tomorrow is his given day but I'm working so I wanted to put it in today.
I just can't believe all these years have passed and you're 12 now. It seems like not so long ago, you were a little puppy.

I wish so much I had taken tons of pics of you like I do now. I only have a precious few to look back on. You mean so much to me. You're a part of my soul now. I can't imagine my life without you and I cry as I type this because I know you're getting older and your time here is short. I pray we have many more happy years together. Before I got you, I was a cat person. Sure, I'd had dogs in my life before but it took you to teach me the wonders of dog love and devotion. I'm so glad that your brother jumped up and kissed me in the mouth because I was going to pick him instead of you. Just look at what I would have missed. I also wish I had taken photos a few years after I'd gotten you when you and your brother were reunited for a little get together. I cherish all my time with you and would do anything for you. I love you deeply. So, Happy Birthday special boy. I will love you always.

Oh, Duke! Happy birthday, puppy boy! We all love you, most of all because you are such a handsome guy that makes Val sooooo happy! That you accepted Doogie into your home so graciously is just another indicator of the true gentleman you are. Hope you have a happy, happy rolling in the mud (sorry Val, it is mud season up here!) or playing in the surf sort of day! And lots of treats, and a great BIG hug from all of Pet Talk, too!

[K9soul]

Dearest Duke, oh did your Momma's tribute bring tears to my eyes. There's never been any doubt what a most beloved, most special and soulful companion of a lifetime you are. God must have had a hand in things that day you came home with your mom. He knew she'd need a special angel to get her through some very rough and trying times, to help her remember that true, unconditional love survives in this sometimes cold and cruel world.

Duke, I hope today was especially beautiful for you and your adoring Mom. You deserve nothing but the best, and there's no better person out there to give it to you than your Mom. Happy birthday precious Duke. Gentle hugs to you on your special day :)
