Welcome to the Celebration Blog for our dear friend @FrugalDougal, " The Pawty King! "
Dougal is a 1996 model, born in Rutland, United Kingdom. Since 2009, Dougal has walked the walk and barked the bark, leading us along his pathway of open-hearted kindness and charitable acts. To date, Dougal has been at the forefront of the anipals putting our paws together and raising over US $32,000 ! *eyes popping*
Dougal's first Pawpawty back in 2009, was attended by 20 Pals, with very few prizes. But although small in stature, Dougal does not think small; he pressed on, sniffing and trekking his way to greatness. Nowadays, Pawpawtys are staffed by DJs, Barktenders and he even has his own Sekurity Team.
When Dougal's parents flew to The Shorty Awards in New York, to receive Dougal's Award for Non Profit Charitable Acts, all of us puffed out our hairy chests as a sign of pride, because our dear friend was being recognized and rewarded on the World Stage. No honor could be too great for Dougal to receive. Dougal doesn't only live the high life though, he has remained grounded (very close to the ground), and still talks with ordinary folks too! *big smile*
Throughout Dougal's 14.5 years of his life, he has enjoyed many different tasty treats. He has also sampled many a Pawpawty Menu! He says: "someone had to do it." Yet Dougal's favorite food to nom is the humble chip, as in fish-n-chips. Let me be more specific: Fish-n-Chips by the Sea! (Maybe all these chips are one of Douglas secret beauty tips: oil from the chips bring a shiny tangle free coat! ) Above all, Dougal enjoys the beautiful After-Chip-Breath! (I believe Dougal is willing to demonstrate his Chip-Breath ability at any time requested.)
For all young pups reading this story, learn from Dougal and copy his strength of mind and body. Instead of man-up, I say to all pups = "Stand up and Dougal Up!"
But the "Piece de Resistance" for FrugalDougal is his absolute love of running free along the wet shores of his beloved England! Salty wind in his flowing hair, his face splashed with salty specs of cold ocean waters! Ahhhhh, at this very moment Dougal is more alive than ever! This is what Dougal's life is really about! This IS Dougal the Dog!
On behalf of all Anipals, Dougal it is our Privilege and our Honor to call you "friend." You are in a League all of your own and we humbly Salute you! *humbly bows to FrugalDougal* Dougal you have changed our lives, motivating us to open our hearts and follow your lead in helping needy animals around the globe. Individually, may we always remember the kindness you have taught us.
Dougal also takes great pride in his most successful "Lessons of Knowledge" that he has imparted to his Staff. Lesson 1) the official way carrots and peppers must be chopped to release their true flavors; Lesson 2) the importance of selective prowess in deciding which chicken to chase (example: gift chicken toy is the correct type of chicken to be chased); Lesson 3) the purrfected positions for a purrfect nights sleep = on the mama's bed, with his bottom in-line with Mom and Dads faces; or, for something novel: horizontal between Mom and Dad. Both sleep positions assure the purrfect nights rest !
Young Pups please study and learn from Dougal's life's work, what his Mom calls "his adorable little begging face."
Above everything else, you have taught us, "love can change the world!" In your own words: Love can change the world if enough people share the same love and hope and no-one should ever underestimate what a little dog can do."
On behalf of all Anipals: "Dougal, we are honored to be your friends and sincerely wish you all the very best of life, and may your legacy of generosity continue to grow and inspire.
Dougal, we love you! XXX
*all glasses raised* "Hurray for Dougal!"
