Little boys and cute dogs naturally go together - most of the time.

Our little dog (Theodora - or Teddy for short) has been eager to meet our two-year-old grandson and frolic with him and get to know him better, but the little boy has been more than a little wary of the 29-pound Sheltie. And then today, he was sitting on the couch in our den when Teddy hopped up on the couch, leaned against the little boy and went right to sleep.

At first he was ready to get out of dodge, but after a little encouragement, he reached out and started petting Teddy and feeling her ears. He soon discovered that Teddy was soft and sweet and fun to pet.

I’m sure that in the years to come, the two of them will become good friends.

Teddy is a good dog, and our grandson is a sweet boy.
