Dearest Martina, you are marvelous, indeed! What a precious Chihuahua lady you are! You are utterly adorable in that great photo, and thank you for sharing it with us. You're so cute with those huge ears and lovely big dark eyes and that big smile, complete with tongue sticking out! And you have the most delightful personality, too. You're a mature lady of 13 years, but you have plenty of energy, making your dear people smile with your antics! And you have fun playing with socks. You've developed Degenerative Heart Disease, not uncommon in small dogs, but you take your daily medicines and you're doing fine. You're your dear person's special friend! You and all your family members love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Martina, on being chosen Dog of the Day! We hope you and your special friend and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
