Boy and Dog



A good relationship always picks up where it left off. And so Dan and Jake are rediscovering each other.

I had been trying to tell Jake his boy was coming home today. But Jake just never got the hang of Skype and could not conceive that his old friend was halfway around the world.

He rode with us to the airport to pick Dan up today. I don’t think his tail quit wagging the whole way home.

He hasn’t let Dan out of his sight since they walked in the door.

After dinner Jake insisted they go out back with his Kong. He fetched and fetched and fetched some more. He’s still panting hard as he lies at Dan’s feet.



It is quite clear whose room he is sleeping in tonight. I knew I was just a stand-in...

They do look happy! I'm sure Jake loves you but there's nothing like a boy and his dog or a dog and his boy.

What a sweet post. I teared up, the big sentimental dog-loving one that I am! :-) So happy for both of your "boys."

How wonderful!! We have a similar situation with both boys home at the moment. Joe's cat was so happy to see him home (arrived yesterday) and he curled up on the end of his bed, on his jeans, and didnt' move for the whole evening, purring contentedly.
