What is America's Favorite Pet?
Learn MoreHer absolute favorite toy is a squeaky pacifier made just for dogs, and she takes her playtime very seriously. Tootsie loves to fetch, catch, and snatch that toy with impressive speed and enthusiasm, proudly carrying it around like a prized possession. Watching her play is pure happiness.
What makes Tootsie truly unique is her balance of playfulness and presence. She can be energetic and fun one moment, then quietly curl up beside you the next, offering comfort without ever being asked. She has a gentle spirit, a loyal heart, and an incredible ability to make people feel loved.
Tootsie should be named America’s Favorite Pet because she represents everything we cherish in our pets—unconditional love, loyalty, joy, and companionship. With her expressive eyes, perky ears, and calm confidence, she looks at you as if she truly understands every feeling. She reminds us that the simplest moments, like fetch or a loving look, mean the most. Everywhere she goes, people can’t help but smile and tell me how cute and adorable she is, leaves a lasting impression on everyone.
