Doris Day was a great fan of us little dogs and animals of all kinds. April 3rd was her birthday and she called in “live” to a streamed broadcast on KIDD 630-AM in Carmel, California.

Ed Dickinson was the DJ host from 8 am to noon, PST. Some of Doris’ famous songs as well as tributes and Doris herself was heard.

My daddy has been a great fan of Doris Day since 1962 when he first saw Jumbo at Radio City Music Hall. That’s a long, long, time ago I think. He even met her twice and she was very nice to him.
