Good morning and happy Dog of the Day to you adorable, sweet Stella! What a gorgeous, gentle giant of a pup you are, sweetheart! 130lbs of pure, droolin' love, you are! And I have a feeling, as has been the case with most Danes I've met, you're also a wanna be lap dog! And if you're keen on snoozing with the humans at night, I hope your Mom and Dad have a really, really BIG bed! hehe

Having worked in breed rescue I am sadly, too familiar with dog surrender, with families who failed to sufficiently research their chosen breed, failed to take into consideration their home situation and limitations. Thank goodness for rescue groups such as yours, and for truly committed, loving families such as yours! As your Mom says, they love you so much it's "ridiculous!" That's just as it should be, that's just what every pup, every companion animal deserves, unconditional, "ridiculous" love, forever and always!

Enjoy your much deserved day in the spotlight, beautiful Stella! Hope you're treated to the happiest day of celebration, including but not limited to, adding numbers 19 and 20 to that impressive toy collection of yours! hehe

BIG hugs and slobbery, wet smoochies to you, beautiful Stella! Long and happy life to you, sweet baby girl!
