And does any one here hear crying? If you do it is me, because Mojtka's story brought me to tears. Tears of saddness and tears of joy at the same time. So sad for this dear little thing to have such a horrid start in life and yet so wonderful that all that brought her to a happy home where she can be loved, play ball and be celebrated the world over as our very, very special Dog of the Day.

Mojtka you are honored for you sweet ways and your happy heart. You are honored for all things wonderful about you. You must appreciate that this honor is coming in words only because if we were all there with you, the thunder of the applause would be deafening and the line for giving you kisses would be backed up for miles.
