Greetings Sansão! Happy Dog of the Day to you!
What a beautiful Epagneul Breton/Brittany you are! It's not often we have one of your own as our featured honoree, so meeting you today, all the way from Portugal, was an extra special treat; that big, beautiful smile of yours sure has brightened my very dark and stormy day! I'm so sorry to hear of the very sad, untimely passing of your dear litter mates. But miraculously you summoned the will to fight on, and oh, just look at you now! As your proud person says, you truly are a survivor, one brave and courageous boy, and an inspiration to us all! What a wonderful bond of love and devotion you and your person share, true soul mates, bonded since birth. A human couldn't wish for a more loyal and loving best friend than you, sweetheart, and I hope that you and yours will know many, many more happy years together!
Enjoy your well earned day on center stage, sweetheart, celebrating to the max with your proud person!
Lots of love, hugs and kisses to, beautiful Sansão!
(I laughed out loud at your hiding the shoes maneumver...smart pup!)
