Dog of The Day for 4/16/2012 — Roxy age 4 — Yorkie Terrie

“Roxy is a 4-year-old Yorkie. When I was in the hospital for two weeks, she stayed at the door crying the whole time. Wherever I am, she is at. She is the dog of every day.”

Roxy waited at the door for two weeks. Her person was in the hospital and Roxy, faithful and confused and full of love, stayed at that door and cried for fourteen days. This is one of the most powerful demonstrations of canine devotion we have ever shared on Dog of the Day. She could not understand where her person had gone. She only knew they were gone and she was waiting. And when they came back — because they came back — Roxy’s two weeks of faithful waiting became a story her owner carries with them as the deepest possible proof of being loved. “Wherever I am, she is at.” “The dog of every day.” We cannot add anything to that. Roxy is the dog of every day, and her person is the luckiest person in the world. Please give this extraordinary girl a like and share her story.
