I'm so sorry you lost your precious Tex. But what a beautiful birthday gift of life you gave to Samantha AND to Ranger. Buster, I would have guessed you were 9 1/2 MONTHS old!!!! Ranger's going to have his hands full! You are certainly one beautiful, magnificent girl Buster, and I wish you many, many happy years with your very special family. As for loyally upholding your "Dog of the Day" duties?? I think that means.....Celebate in grand style!!! Congratulations Buster! BIG puppy kisses to you and Ranger!
