Dearest Penny, a.k.a. "Pocket full of Penny," what an adorable Miniature Dachshund you are! Your black and brown fur is so sleek and pretty and looks so soft, and you have the sweetest face with those lovely big brown eyes. And your puppies are so tiny and precious! You are a terrific mom to those pups, aren't you. Thank you for sharing those great photos with us.

You have the most delightful personality, too. You sleep in your dear person's bed at night, and you LOVE to snuggle. You even nursed a kitten last summer! You had milk, and you nursed the kitten to full growth. Now you and the cat are best friends. You love people, and you love their attention as they come to admire you and the pups! You and your dear pups and people all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!

Congratulations, darling Penny, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear people and puppies and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
