Foxworth, the Dog of the Day
Name: Foxworth
Age: Two years old
Gender: Male
Breed: Pomeranian
Home: New Jersey, USA
 
   My Foxworth is the happiest little dog in the world! He loves everyone and everything! He is a very smart dog, he knows all his toys by name. His nickname is Hunna Bunna "Foxworth," because he is my Hunna Bunna!!

    Foxworth is my best buddy and he does look like a fox, henceforth the name. But I usually just call him Fox or Foxy. Well, Fox is the smartest dog I have ever come across! Like all other poms, he loves to play games. He knows the name of each and every toy he has. His favorite game is catch, so I call his balls or toys by the color or name (purple ball, orange ball, white ball, bunny, baby, spot, etc.) You tell Fox what color ball or the name of the toy you want and he will retrieve it.

    But the most special thing about Fox is that he loves everyone! When my Mom became very ill and needed help after a long stay at the hospital, I was summoned to help. I told Mom that I must take my Fox with me. Mom said no, she didn't like dogs. I brought "The Fox" anyway and now they are best friends! Fox did not leave her side the entire time, he even slept with her every night (though he knows his place is with me). He watched her like he was her guardian angel, it's funny how dogs can be smarter than people sometimes.
