Dana, the Dog of the Day
Name: Dana
Age: Thirteen years old
Gender: Female Breed: Yorkshire Terrier
Home: Ontario, Canada
 
   This is my Yorkshire Terrier, Dana. She is getting up in years and I would love to see her honored for the unconditional love and devotion she has shown our family.

    Dana, a.k.a. "Boo Boo" has been with us, her adopted family, since she was six weeks old. She was chosen out of a litter of five for her inquisitive and feisty nature. It was love at first sight! She has the attitude and courage of a much larger dog and is in charge of the other furry animals sharing our household. She loves stuffed toys and will find lambie and chickie on command only to jump on the bed and throw them playfully in the air with numerous scary growls.

    Dana is young at heart and even at thirteen will prance excitedly at the mention of the word walk. At night she circles and scratches the perfect spot for her sleep. But even after this ritualistic selection process I usually find her snuggled and snoring contently under the covers when I wake. Dana is a gem and has been a valued and much loved member of our family for many wonderful years. In my eyes, she is still the frisky and adorable puppy I held in my hands for the first time as she struggled to lick my face… puppy breath and doggie love. It doesn't get better than that.

    Dana thank you for being part of our family. We love you Sweet Boo Boo!
