I think I nominated Maddie before I was a member,
so it's been at least a year ago. I was going
to submit each dog one at a time, but since Maddie
never got selected, I didn't go ahead with Murph
and Oz. I know this is going to sound silly, but
I didn't want Maddie to feel bad that she didn't
get selected and then if by chance Murph or Oz did.
Oh the jealousy.

I know, she doesn't know what Dog of the Day is and
couldn't care less, but she's special to me, so I guess
it's more I would have felt bad for her. And I know
it's a subjective process and just because she's
special to me, doesn't mean she's as special to
anybody else. But when it comes to the ones you love,
sometimes emotional thought overtakes rational thought.

Anywho, in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter
to her, because she knows she's my Dog of the Day
everyday (and so are Murph and Oz, but we'll just keep
that lil' tidbit to ourselves ), so who knows at
some point I may get around to nominating Murph and
Oz too.
