What a joy it is to meet you, Pearl, if only through the Internet.
Maybe it is best that way, as if I should ever meet you in the flesh, I would be bestowing kissies and huggers in a very undignified fashion and you would have to let out one of those {sighs}.

So Pearl enjoy your high honor of being Dog of the Day, which you may now add to your other titles of Princess and Queen. Just don't hold your head up too high for fear it might give you a stiff neck. And congratulations are in order for your dear folks for they have the best honor of all...the honor of your company.
