Be still my Retriever loving heart!!! What a beautiful Chessie boy you are, Hudson! And what an iconic shot that is of you, posing so proudly on the dunes...magnificent! That photo is definitely calendar worthy material! But it's the pictures of you sleeping so sweetly and innocently which speak to who you truly are; that made me swoon, and make want to cover your precious face with kisses! I can hardly believe you're 10 years young, Hudson! You have the looks, and energy of a kid! Your young boy is so very lucky, having an active, fun loving, devoted best friend (and hockey goalie) such as you to grow up with! Congratulations to you beautiful Hudson, our very special and most deserving, Dog of the Day! I hope you and your young boy, your proud parents, are all enjoying a very happy, fun and adventure filled day!

Hugs and kisses, woofs and wags to you precious Hudson, from me my Lab, Star!
