Sasha, you had my heart the moment I opened up the DOTD page with those sweet, soulful eyes and blurred wagging tail . I must say you look quite fashionable too! You know your human brings up a really good point about dogs wearing sweaters and such. In my case, one of my dogs does not like attention from strangers and once when I took her out in the winter with a sweater on, I learned that people really seem to want to approach and pet a dressed up doggie . So that's a great idea for pups who are desiring more attention and socializing when they go out! Yes indeed, with that smooth velvety coat of yours, you certainly need some winter wear .

Please be very careful sweetheart, when you chase deer and other animals. I got a knot in my throat when I read about your potentially fatal brush with a car . No more of that now, okay?

My boy Tommy can certainly relate with your love of foods, too . Eating is one of the best parts of life right Sasha? That and of course snuggling and cuddling, a skill you also excel at. I would just love to meet you someday Sasha. There'd be no fearfulness here, only delight, kisses and many pats and scritchies! I hope today you have an EXTRA special and fun day today with your proud and adoring human and your best bud, Panda. Congratulations Sasha, on being our charming, sweet, and MOST deserving Dog of the Day!
