Fame Finds Frankie!

Frankie has an important new job!

Woot! Woot!

Guess what, folks? Everybody's favorite dachsie-on-wheels, Frankie the Walk n' Roll Dog, has been named the official mascot of National Disabled Pets Day, the newly minted observation by the Animal Miracle Network! Check out their website, where you'll see an absolutely ADORABLE photo of Frankie and her mom, Barbara Techel.

We covered Frankie a while back and have since come to be friends with Barb (who has also become a frequent commenter here at Almost Perfect Pets). You just knew then that it wouldn't be long till this furry little tube of cuteness with the sweetest face on earth would be recognized as the stunning creature she is.

We are so proud, and we know Frankie will do a great job in her new role as NDPD spokesdog. We know Barb will help Frankie with all her new responsibilities, and I'll let Frankie tell you the rest.

Congratulations, little wonderdog!

Oh, Hooray! We're Official!

Beanie

I learned this morning via Franny's Cats Blog that the Animal Miracle Network had succeeded in getting May 3 recognized as National Disabled Pets Day! This is such a wonderful thing. It helps all of us who know the importance of raising awareness of the plight of special needs animals everywhere. And it'll be a great reason to celebrate Almost Perfect again next year, so thanks, AMN!
