Dog of the Day: Addie and Her Legendary Log
Some dogs chase toys, some sprint through open fields, and some dig for hidden treasures — but Addie, short for Addison, has a personality all her own. In this beautiful wide-open field on a golden afternoon, Addie proudly carries her favorite log, a sturdy stick that has become her trademark. In the photo, you can see the tall grass swaying in the wind, the sunlight stretching across the landscape, and Addie standing strong with the confidence of a dog who knows exactly who she is. Addison isn’t just her full name — it fits her perfectly: classic, steady, and full of heart.
Addie has always had a fascination with large sticks, but today’s log is something special. She doesn’t grab just anything at random; she chooses with purpose. She tests the grip, the weight, and the feel before deciding which one is worthy of her adventure. And once she commits, nothing distracts her — not passing hikers, squirrels darting around, or even another dog calling in the distance. Her chosen log is her prize, her trophy, and absolutely her joy.
Watching Addie wander through the long grass with this impressive log feels like witnessing pure freedom. According to the American Kennel Club, dogs often form attachments to objects because they create comfort, excitement, or confidence during play (AKC guide). Addie’s dedication to her log fits this perfectly. To her, it’s more than wood — it’s a partner in exploration, turning every open space into a world of possibility…
