He's a huge dog, but every kid in town knows him and they all give him hugs and kisses. I bathed him today (hates baths, I had to phone for help to get him in and it almost killed me!) just so he'd be nice and clean for them. It's funny how some are just in love with them and others are maybe a bit afraid?
