Raz is my near constant companion.  He makes no Bones about loving his treats as he prances around showing it off to the neighbors.  He speaks for his food with "Mama" or "I Love You" and picks up his toys and takes them to his large bed.  He climbs in the tub when it is bath time.  He is now 12 years old born on the Fourth of July.  I feel fortunate to have a dog  who loves life, people and is a friend to the wild animals.
