Greetings, Silver! Happy Dog of the Day!

What a stunning girl you are, Silver, the quintessential GSD, embodying all of those cherished traits your beloved breed is known for: beauty, keen intelligence (bilingual!), athleticism, incomparable devotion and loyal to your human, a heart as big as they come! How blessed your human is, having been chosen by you to be your one and only! No doubt you sensed, even at that young age, that she was in need of a very special someone to help her over some very turbulent, challenging days to come, and how you delivered! Through good times and tough times, the most heartbreaking of times, you were there for her, comforting her with your unconditional love and unwavering devotion, helping to heal her broken heart.

What a very special bond you and your Momma share, a bond that only grows deeper and stronger with each passing day! And while my heart breaks, knowing your Momma's beloved Dad is no longer with her, I take comfort knowing she has you, her ever faithful best friend and loving companion, her guardian and soulmate there by her side! And I have no doubt that you're going to shine in your protection and agility training, Silver, in your role as a search and rescue dog! Oh, what fun and exciting times await you and your Momma as you embark on your new career, though I'm pretty sure she would say nothing compares with those evenings, you snuggling up beside her in bed after a long day, having given the "all clear!" You truly are one in a million, Silver, just as special as they come, and so very deserving of your big day of honor!

Thanks for the BIG smiles, Silver! Meeting you today, having the chance to honor all that you mean to your Momma, the love you share, has been a joy! I hope you're in the midst of a very special day of celebration...playing with your 3 doggie brothers and sister; herding the 5 kitties and your 2 Ferret friends, hehe; spending special time with your Momma; being loved and pampered to pieces! Lots of love, hugs and kisses to you, beautiful Silver, our very special and most deserving Dat of the Day, EVERY day! Love to all of your furry siblings, too!

SO beautiful!!!
