Dakota, No words can say how great he was. He was a part of our family, a gentle giant is what he was. He loved his evening walks and would let you know about it by talking to you, and if you ignored him he would get a little louder each time. He also loved to have his belly rubbed and if you stopped rubbing his belly to soon he would grunt and slap you with his paw to say "hey" your not done yet. I miss that about him, his little ways he would say "hey" I'm still here. He was always happy and had a big smile on his face. I know most people would say dog's don't smile but he did and boy could he light up a room just by walking into it with his big smile and happy tail. He was an amazing dog and will always be greatly missed by everyone who new him. You see he was quite the celebrity in our neighborhood, known at all the local stores and with all our neighbors their was just something about him that drew people to him. Dakota had to leave us a little to soon, because of bone cancer. We will miss him and love him for always.
