We have a sweet ten year old black lab named Jasper. I really couldn't ask for a better dog. Well, okay, maybe a little less shedding - but beyond that, I think he's perfect. He has always been great with the girls, even when C was younger and was, shall I say, less than gentle. You can tell that he likes C, and he even does pretty well minding her, but he truly adores M. I don't know if it's because she has always been very nice to him, or if it's because she is a sure bet for getting a bite of people food. At any rate, he would follow her to the ends of the earth.
The last several nights when we have gone upstairs to go to bed, M's door has been open. When we go in to investigate, Jasper is in there sleeping on her floor. He has learned to lean on her door enough for it open without turning the knob. I think it's sweet that he just wants to be near his "person". What a good dog! I guess it's no wonder that M's favorite book right now is "Good Dog, Carl".
