A boy and his dog...My grandson and granddog:

[trof]

Jack is my grandson.
He is 3 1/2 years old and weighs 30 pounds.
He ain't real big, but he makes up for that in feisty.
Jack can put a stink eye on you that will curdle milk.
He's the one in the foreground.

Boudreaux (Boo) is my granddog and one of my new best friends.
He is a six month old American Mastiff and weighs 97 pounds.
Well, that was last Thursday.
He's probably up to 105 by now.

Here's what my daughter has to say about them:

"Boo is so great with our son Jack (3.5) and his friends, we are continually amazed. He is only 6 months old right now but he weight 97 pounds. He is a big cuddly baby. He has never once showed even an ounce of aggression towards another animal or people. We have a cat and he loves her even though she terrorizes him.
He has such a soft mouth you can't believe it. My parents visited for the holidays and my dad was amazed that Boo was carrying around a paper towel tube and he wasn't even crushing it.

Boo and Jack like to run through the house and then jump into a bean bag (Boo's downstairs bed) and Boo, even in all his excitement, is always careful not to hurt Jack. They are great playmates.
Boo loves everyone he meets. We had his first day of puppy class yesterday and he was thrilled to get to meet so many people and dogs. He really is the happiest most loving animal I have ever met. I HIGHLY recommend this breed with children."

Grandkids are way more fun that kids - aren't they? :-)

9. Oh yeah.

A LOT cheaper to maintain and you can send 'em back to their parents when you're through playing with them.
