Beautiful Kobe!

[tatsxxx11]

Good morning precious Kobe! Happy Dog of the Day to you!

I was so touched, moved to tears, by your Mommy's heartfelt, beautifully written tribute to her beautiful best boy! You started off life with so many strikes against you, sweetheart, but blessedly yours is one of those happy ending rescue tales, a testament to all, of the priceless rewards of rescue! And what an amazing ambassador for rescues you are, Kobe, one most deserving Dog of the Day honoree...make that Dog of a Lifetime, honoree!

Your Grandpa might not have thought at the beginning that he was ready to welcome a canine best buddy into his life. But with your unwavering loyalty, your unconditional love, you unlocked his heart, and in you walked! I'm sure those daily trips home to care for you as you were recovering from your heartworm treatment played a huge part in helping to forge the unbreakable bond of love and trust you share with him, and every day of your life you have repaid him his compassion and devotion with your love and loyalty! How lucky he, your Mom, your entire family are to have known your companionship, your love and loyalty, these many years! I know I keep repeating myself..."love," "loyalty..." But that's what you are all about, Kobe; a loving and loyal best friend and soul mate for life, every family's dream furkid!

Thanks for starting my day off with a huge smile, Kobe! I hope you enjoy a very happy day, celebrating with your Grandpa (and Mom if she's home). And I wish for you and them, many more wonderful years together! You truly are one extra special pup!!!
Hugs and kisses to you on your big day, precious Kobe!!! (And please have your Grandpa pet those soft, velvety ears for me!)
