Good morning Spike! Me and my Lab Star are honored to be the first to congratulate you on your big day in the spotlight, beautiful boy. Your proud person's beautifully written, heartfelt tribute to her best friend and soul mate has brought tears to my eyes. Yes Spike, you're more than just a dog, you're a heart healer, ambassador, wise teacher and devoted companion; a stunning Yellow Lab with a heart of gold. More than Dog of the Day, you're Dog of a Lifetime. As your Mom (or Dad) has said, a doggie like you comes along maybe once in a lifetime, and how blessed she is to have you there by her side, through the good times and bad, bringing endless joy and unconditional love and devotion to her life! You truly are ***magical*** And as a Lab mom myself, all I can say is I understand just how she feels! Keep up the good work sweetheart, being the best friend a human could ever hope for, spreading good will and smiles wherever you go! Hope you enjoy a very special day of celebration with your family, Spike! I'm sure all of your adoring friends and fans, in addition to your family, are going to be so proud to see you honored here today! Hugs, love, and happy Labbie butt wiggles and woofs to you beautiful Spike, from me and my girl Star! Make sure your Mom gives you an extra special, yummy, fave treat for me, OK big guy?
