Hi Lily! Happy Dog of the Day!

"Lily," what a lovely and most fitting name for one lovelyl Malti-Poo girl, precious beyond words and oh so photogenic! Your photo spread has melted my heart into a puddle of pure Malti-Poo mush! I may never stop smiling! But as squee worthy as your photos are, as lovely as you are to look at, just as your mom says, it's your BIG Texas size heart, your sweet and loving personality that set you paws above the rest! A friend to all, 2 and 4 leggers alike, that you are!

Endless thanks to you and your family for bringing so much comfort and joy, unconditional love and laughter to those in need through your therapy work; your selfless dedication to helping heal those who are suffering: emotionally, physically; those just in need of a little education canine style, and a smile. You truly are an inspiration not only to them (see pic!!!), but to us all! A paying job it may not be, but again, as your Mom says, the rewards are priceless! And after spending time at the hospital, center or school, how better to end a fulfilling day than putting your paws up and taking your rightful spot, cuddled up in a warm and comfy sweater, next to your Daddy's heart! (Being a Daddy's girl also has its priceless rewards!)

Great thanks to your dear Mom for sharing your beautiful self, your heartwarming, inspirational backstory and all of those heart-melting photos with us, Lily! Meeting you, having the chance to honor you here today, has been a joy! I hope you're enjoying a very special day of celebration, sweetheart...playing tug o war and fetch; munching on cashews, Cheetos and cheddar cheese (I sense a "c" thing here, lol); cuddling with your Daddy and your Mommy, being loved and pampered to pieces! Lots of love, snuggles and smooches to you, precious Lily, our very special and most deserving Dog of the Day, EVERY day!

Daddy's girl!!!



Be still my heart!!!
