Theo Wonder Basset!

[mrsbnatural]

Holy cow - 132 pounds?! You were a big ol' basset, weren't you? I didn't know they could get that large. You are a cutie pie and I'm glad you were rescued from a bad situation (but I wouldn't recommend any petroleum jelly as a snack - ick!)

Have a great day as Dog of the Day!

[Daisy and Delilah]

What can we say? You are definitely a wonder dog alright. We see you and Delilah share the same birthday. She was also 10 this year. We're all pretty excited to hear this. The same exact age!!! Your video is priceless!! You are the cutest guy on four feet. Energy coming out of everywhere. We loved watching you "woof" at Jim Dandy and Dood. We really thought you would take the toy away. It eventually ended up in a barkfest didn't it? Thank goodness your family saved you from that life of eating all the wrong stuff and being so heavy. You've lost alot of weight and anyone can tell you feel alot better. Big thanks to your family. Please tell Mom we love her yard art too. Congrats to a very deserving DOTD, Theo. Please tell Mom to give you a billion kisses from us today. Some for Jim Dandy and Dood too please!! We wouldn't be afraid to pet you at all. No matter how much you might smell. Happiness always!!!!

Love, Daisy and Delilah in Hot Hot Hot Florida

Greetings adorable Theo, The WONDER DOG!!! I can't tell you how touched I was by your amazing, miraculous, inspirational, WONDERFUL rescue story! And your video! Between your Mommy keeping track of those calories, and your precious fursibs keeping you active, it's no wonder you're down to a 95 svelte lbs! (Not sure which of you won the battle of the stuffie, though!) But one thing's for sure, you sure do love your sibbies Jim Dandy and Dood, and oh, how they love you! We are so happy that you found your way to such a caring, responsible and loving forever home, sweetheart! And major kudos to your Mommy for her commitment to keeping you healthy and trim! It's not always easy for we moms refrain from spoiling our furkids. But nothing is more important than keeping you healthy and with her for many more years to come! Congratulations and lots of love, hugs and kisses to you and the entire furry crew! Hope you're all enjoying a very special Dog of the Day celebration...you DESERVE IT! Thanks for the smiles adorable Theo, our very special honoree!
P.S...I love "smelly dog" smell, so I'd be all over you in a heartbeat!

I have to tell you how handsome you are! I love Basset Hounds and you are certainly one to contend with! I loved that video! Just too funny the way you attack and never leave a mark (except maybe some drool!). I am very happy you are a bit slimmer. (Quite a bit!) and I know you had to work REALLY hard to get it off. Wolf and I both fight the battle CONSTANTLY! Keep up the good work at rounding up your fursibs, and keep on loosing a little. Big sloppy kisses for you, Gorgeous!
