Dog of the Day: Cash Junior, Lost Without Him

My Life
"Cash Junior" was born in a litter of 11 pups, Junior being the runt of the litter.
Mom Delihla was very ill and unable to feed 11 pups and this gave us the opportunity to get Junior at the age of 2 weeks.
It was true love at first sight: up all night bottle feeding, sometimes tube feeding, cuddling, and just being there.
I worked at a veterinary clinic and Junior went everywhere with me. He went to work, he went to the store, and he is no further than 6 inches behind me wherever I go.
We have a rather large family 2 cats, 3 chihuahuas, 4 children and Junior. Junior is either going 35 miles per hour or sleeping on the couch or bed.
We have been through everything together from him trying to jump a 6 foot brick wall to him never leaving my side after 2 major surgeries.
When I get home from the grocery store he checks every bag till he finds the new toy purchased for him.
He does everything from helping make the bed and putting pillow cases on, to playing on the trampoline with the kids.
Sometimes I think he is a little too spoiled but that is what has made him the crazy lap runner, go everywhere, sit on my shoulder, hug giver, sweetheart he is.
From being bossy telling you what he wants to obeying my every command, Junior means everything to me and my family.
Even the cats enjoy the love Junior gives when he snuggles up to them and cleanes their ears or brings them his toys to share and play.
We relax on the back porch swing and share an apple after playing running laps around the trampoline and of course jumping with the kids.
