Dearest Basil, what an adorable English Springer Spaniel you are! You are absolutely gorgeous in every one of those great photos you've shared with us, thank you. And what a delightful personality you have! You are very friendly and sweet, silly and cuddly. You love all people and animals. You are getting on in years, but you still give your best with everything you do. You are the best and friendliest dog your dear person has ever met. You and your family members all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!

Congratulations, darling Basil, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats, maybe a special serving of dried pigs ears!
