My my what a handsome boy! I love your big, splotchy spots. My first dog was a Dalmatian / Labrador and I've always loved your breed. Dals are simply amazing and you are by no means an exception. Your family seems to love you very much and it's no wonder why. You're a very deserving DOTD and I hope you get spoiled rotten. Maybe they'll let oyu have that stake this time, eh? ;) Here's hoping you get to play some chase and have a special day. Hugs to you, sweet boy.

Morning, Pete, what a special boy you are! Extra treats for you today.

I had to chuckle when I read "children see him and say "a dalmation!" When I was a kid, I could never remember that word. I would alwas exclaim: "a fire truck dog!" :D

A Spotty Boy!! YAY!! We love Spotty boys and you are such great example of how wonderful your breed is. We had to quote part of Mom's story about you and here it is:

[Pete's Human says]Pete is extremely affectionate. He demands to be thoroughly petted every morning, until there is a pile of hair as tall as mountain for us to clean up.[End quote]

Now there is some demand for affection!! We believe you have beaten Delilah in her quest for all the affection in the world :) Come on over to Florida nad we'll help in the petting as well!! We loved hearing about the doggie door training. The raw steak on the other side will do the trick every time. Congrats on your big day today, sweetie!! Please have the family give you tons of extra kisses from us and we wish you happiness always!!! :D :D :D :D :D

Love, Daisy and Delilah in Sunny-110 degree heat index-Florida :eek: :cool: :cool:

Pete...You are just a big beautiful baby with all those spots on you.
I would love to have you but since I can't have mom to give you a big hug for me. Congratulations on DOTD.
A Dog Lover ;) ;) ;)
