Hi there Elliot! A very happy Dog of the Day from everyone in this Retriever loving home!

Oh, be still my heart! What an adorable baby boy you are, Elliot, precious beyond words! That smile of yours, those big brown eyes, have be beaming from the inside out! And just look at those massive pawsies! You're gonna be a BIG BOY!

I'm so sorry to hear of the untimely passing of your beloved predecessor, Lucky. In true Golden Retriever style, the pawprints he left on your mommy's heart are eternal, his legacy of love everlasting, and so it's no surprise to learn that when the time came to welcome another pup into her heart and home it would be a Golden, and didn't she hit that pot of "Gold" when she choose you to be "the one!" You're the quintessential Golden, Elliot, just as smart and sweet and loving as they come! There's a reason why you're called a Golden, for your hearts are just that, pure gold! And of course, being a puppy, you're into all sorts of mischief, keeping your mom on her toes! But that's part of your charm (for the most part), the fun to be had in raising a puppy, and I don't think your mom would have it any other way!

What a wonderful life awaits you, sweet baby boy! What fun you and your mom are going to have over the many years to come, making so many happy memories! And I have a feeling that tomorrow, your firstThanksgiving Day, you just might be in for a few extra yummy treats! (Go easy on the gravy!)

Thanks for warming and brightening my cold and rainy day with your heartwarming little self, Elliot! And extra thanks to your mom for adding along with your tribute, so many precious pics! Hope you enjoy a very happy, fun and adventure filled Dog of the Day, and to you and your family, wishes for a very happy Thanksgiving! Lots of love and cuddles, belly rubs and kisses to you, precious Elliot, our very special and most deserving Dog of the Day!
