Dearest Pearl, there is simply no way I would ever be able to resist that beautiful, soulful face of yours. What a most precious girl you are! After reading that you are a 'Pointing Labrador,' I had to do a search on the Internet as I had not really heard of that before. To my surprise, I've clearly been out of the loop! There are many labs with the pointing traits being bred just for those skills. I was fascinated to read and learn about this.

So even if you aren't much into hunting, you certainly excel at being the best friend and companion your family could ever have hoped for. I hope and pray with all my heart that your cataract surgery will be successful and that you will go on to chase and retrieve many more tennis balls in the years to come. Pearl, I hope today is EXTRA special for you, with lots of treats and plenty of love and snuggles from your beloved people. Congratulations on being our sweetest, most irresistible Dog of the Day!
