Good morning Zachary! Happy Dog of the Day to you, sweetheart! Oh, you're going to be stealing a lots of hearts here on Pet Talk today, beautiful boy! Heart stealer and heart healer extraordinaire, a fighter and true survivor of the highest order, that you are! Bless you Zachary, for helping to heal your Grandpa's broken spirit following his stroke! The comfort and inspiration we humans garner from our doggie kids' devotion and quiet brand of unconditional love, is truly a priceless gift!

You truly are a miracle pup Zachary, for not only having battled through your own very serious health challenges, emerging triumphant, but for working a miracle on your Grandpa as well! Reading your heart warming, inspirational story I was reminded of the movie, "Pay It Forward!" Your Mommy stood by you, doing all in her power to heal you when you were so very ill, and in return, you took your Grandpa under your paw in his time of need, and now he has payed the love forward by adopting a deserving, homeless doggie! So many hearts and bodies healed, and it all started with you Zachary, the beautiful Poodle pup with a heart of gold! Yes, God remembers! How blessed your family is to have such a loyal and loving best friend, a soul mate for life, a Dog of a Lifetime in you, Zachery!

Congratulations and lots and lots of love, hugs and kisses to you on your much deserved day of honor, precious Zachery! I wish for you and your family, a very happy, love filled day of celebration, and many, many more wonderful years together!
