A Boy and His Dog

Knox and Vinnie have always had a special bond.

When we first came home from the hospital, Knox was sleeping in the Pack N Play next to our bed. That first morning, Vinnie woke up and went outside. Before he came back Knox woke up, so I picked him up and sat snuggling him in bed. When Vinnie came back in, he peered into the Pack N Play and when he didn't see the baby he sat down and began to whine.

I knew then that it was puppy love.

One of the very first things we taught Knox was how to be gentle and pet the dogs, nicely.

He absolutely adores his puppies and, often, in the morning you'll hear him calling "Doggy! Doggy!" from his crib.

He loves to hug his dogs, and they love to love him back.
