Thank you for relaying the story of Millie's loyalty and devotion and the wonderful pictures of her. Of course it brought tears to my eyes. What a dear and precious little dog she is and, yes, I can certainly understand how she is a reason to keep one going.

I do think Millie deserves to be Dog of the Day. Maybe you could suggest your brother to write up a little bio for her and you could submit it with one of the pictures. Wouldn't that be a wonderful surprise for your SIL to see Millie honored in that manner.
