Congratulations on being Dog of the Day.
What a handsome rescue who has found the perfect place, snow and all.
So smart that your Mommy and Daddy are getting you ready for baby cries.
I'm sure you will do well and will love your little bundle of joy.
Celebrate your special day.

Hi Barkley! Happy Dog of the Day!

What a beautiful, pawsome, pawsitively paw-fect Labbie x GSD boy you are, sweetheart...paw-fection on 4 paws!!! Do we need to be reminded of the priceless rewards of rescue??? Should anyone need a refresher they need only read your heartfelt words! The comfort and joy, love and laughter you and little brother Rufus bring to your Mommy and Daddy's lives is truly a priceless gift! And soon (there already???) you two will have a baby skin brother or sister to love on and look after! What fun that will be! And with the help of the baby crying tape (and a bone or ten, hehe), I have no doubt you'll ease into your new role like a pro; make the best furry brother and protector on the planet! Your family is one lucky pack, having a beautiful best friend, a loyal and loving companion, a full fledged furry family member in you, sweetheart! You're a treasure, a joy, and so very deserving of your big day of honor! And on a side note...won't be long before you get that snow! hehe

Thanks for the BIG smiles, sweetheart! Meeting you today has been a real treat! I hope you're enjoying a very special day of celebration...playing with Rufus and serenading your Mommy, watching over your baby brother/sister (?), being loved and pampered to pieces! Lots of love, hugs and smooches to you, beautiful Barkley, our very special and most deserving Dog of the Day, EVERY day! Love to dear brother Rufus, too!

Gorgeous!!!

Dearest Barkley, you are gorgeous! What a beautiful Shepherd/Lab cross doggie you are. Just look at that wonderful face with those lovely big brown eyes and that cute smile as you chew on your toy there. You're ten years old and have been with your dear people ever since you were eight weeks old. And what a delightful personality you have! You love rolling in snow, your very favorite thing, and singing duets with your Mom, sometimes even for guests! And before long you will have a new little skin brother or sister to love and look after! Mom is using a baby-cry tape to help you get used to the sound, since baby cries make you nervous. She has developed a terrific training method: You get to chew a rawhide bone ... yummy! while you hear the tape! You love to play with your little brother Rufus and your cousins. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!

Congratulations, darling Barkley, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear Mom and Dad and new little skin-sibling and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats and maybe another rawhide bone to chew!
