Midnight, the Dog of the Day
Name: Midnight
Age: One and a half years old
Gender: Male Breed: Black Lab
Home: Holland Patent, New York, USA
 
   Midnight is ready for the new millennium! He has been ever since we got him; however it has not been easy. When he was only six months old Midnight had to under go two surgeries: 1 - to remove pieces of a wool blanket about the size of a tennis ball, that we didn't know that he was ingesting; and 2 - the next surgery - less than a week later, to repair the placement of his stomach, small and large intestines because he had ruptured his incision from the first operation. We have really babied him.

    We had hoped that he would spend most of the time outside, but we have really babied him. He is now a house dog, but we still cannot leave him out of his kennel when we are not home - because he still eats everything... especially when he gets mad at us. We need to pick up all pillows, remote controls, etc. when we go to bed because he'll get even. Midnight is about 110 pounds, but he will always find just enough space to fit in between Dave and I and our two Siamese cats in the middle of the night. It does get very crowded sometimes and even though we don't have any children yet, we don't get much privacy. But no matter what time of day, it's always so nice to have all of the animals around. We don't know what we would do without them.
