June 24th
We aren’t house-proud. If we were, we wouldn’t abide the scratches on the door frame, the holes in the screen, the darkened shine on worn spots on the chair. We would wince at the mottled carpet and fret at the hair clinging to our clothes. We don’t. If anything, we lovers of dogs are a tolerant lot, finding greater value in the unabashed affection of our friend than immaculate sofas. Shoes can be replaced, but heroic retrievers are timeless. They wake us, greet us, protect us, and ultimately carve a place in our hearts.
- Paul Fersen
He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.

4dk - who, in a former life, worked for a company who didn't let us celebrate this day but the security guards would let us sneak in our fur foots on Saturdays or if we were called in late at night. When it came time to celebrate 'Bring Your Children To Work Day", I always took a personal day. Love me - love my dog(s)
