Handsome Rocky

What a shiny boy you are, Rocky, that dark fur looks so nice and warm in the sun! We can see why you vet thinks there might be some Shepherd in you as well, with the thicker coat and brown undertone, but that's fine! It is great you are your girl's first dog she has grown up with, and you are quite a character! It is great you have figured out how to communicate with the humans in the house, even if you sometimes have to check several times to make sure they are following you. We are sure your vocabulary is impressive, and we are glad you are so attuned to your people that you know to comfort them when they are sad. Congratulations, Rocky, you are Dog of the Day!

Congratulations on being Dog of the Day.
You are very much loved by your family and you love them.
You sound pretty much like the perfect dog, protective, loyal, smart, etc.
Celebrate your world famous day with extra CHEESE.

Hi Rocky! Happy Dog of the Day!:) What a welcome sight your sweet face is on this cold and rainy day, sweetheart!:)

What a beautiful, sleek, ebony Labbie X you are, Rocky! I so enjoyed reading your young lady's heartwarming, love filled tribute to her best buddy, her heart doggie! Like all of the Labs and Retriever mixes I've had the honor of sharing my life with, you are an endless source of comfort and joy to your lady, your family! You share with my kids so many of the cherished traits that have brought, and continue to bring, so much happiness and countless laughs and smiles, to my life! And after reading of some of your quirks and clownish antics, there's no denying your Labbiness!:D You're everything we doggie/Retriever lovers could hope for in a furkid...beautiful, big hearted, loyal and loving, and your family so very blessed to have a best friend, a protector, a loving companion in you! As your dad says, you truly were heaven sent, Rocky!!!

My dad says God put him in our lives to calm our hearts and have us take things easy, so maybe that's His way of reaching out to us.
