Dearest Shirley, you are beautiful indeed! What a stunning young lady you are, with that glossy black and brown fur and that sweet face with the big grin. You're big and strong, and you're also very gentle. You're also helpful and very, very nice! When you play with a small dog or small child, you get down to their level so they don't get scared. You and your dear person love each other very much, don't you. You're not only his/her pet, you're his/her BEST FRIEND!!! What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Shirley, on being chosen Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
