You've stolen my heart, beautiful, darling Dakota! Your soulful brown eyes could melt the hardest of hearts! What a loyal and loving companion you are to your adoring family. especially your proud Papa!! Good move, letting up on the furniture chewing...what a thoughtful girl! I'll bet snuggling with Dad on the recliner, watching the tube, beats eating a shoe any day! You're the most precious pup, dear Dakota! And I have a feeling your Daddy (and Mommy!) have a very special day planned for their very special girl! Congratulations to you darling Dakota, Dog of the Day! I wish you and your family many, many more happy years together! Lots of love and hugs and kisses to you sweetheart!
