Scout, I could barely breath as I read how you had to begin your life. How fortunate that your new mommy and daddy were able to find you in time before your heart was broken from lack of love and your body broken from the lack of care.

Scout, as I read your bio I could tell that your mommy is going to make each day a miracle day for you. She understands how she needed to make up for those lost puppy months. What an amazing resilient boy you have been. Yes you are King as well as Dog of the Day. You, dog among all dogs, deserve to have this very special day.

I too have a secret place in my heart for Rat Terriers as there was one in my home when I was young. It was supposed to be *my dog* but Tex was a dog with a mind of his own and he chose my mother. Like a jilted lover I have been forever after been drawn to the little dog who would not be mine.
