Dearest Troy, you are terrific indeed! That sleek black and brown coat is gorgeous, and just look at that sweet face, with those lovely big brown eyes and that mouth with what looks like a big smile (and probably is!). Thank you for sharing that great photo with us. I'm in love already!
You were adopted from a policewoman who rescues Rotties from abusive owners, and my greatest thanks to that wonderful woman for all the dogs she's saved and helped. Troy, you had been badly abused for years before she rescued you, but look what a delightful personality has emerged now that you've come to know and trust safety and love! You're in your wonderful permanent Furrrever home with your wonderful Furrrever person, and my deepest thanks to her/him, too. Now you love everyone, kiss whatever face/hand/arm/toe you can reach, and purr when someone scratches your chest. You love flinging your Kong or tennis ball around the family room. You make your person laugh every day, and you two love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Troy, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
