We got Merlin when Ellie had just started walking, and though she loved her new puppy, once he got bigger she was really just indifferent towards him. I think one too many knock-downs was what pushed her in the other direction (excuse the pun).
Addie, on the other hand... I predict that this girl is going to love her dog. He's much more mellow now that he's older (though he has always been a really good dog) and he is fantastic with the baby, grabbing fists and all. It's actually somewhat funny to see her grab a chunk of hair and the pain sends him to his knees (do dogs have knees?). But as soon as she lets go he returns for more attention, only to get a repeat grab. These two photos make me laugh. They even look like each other! I think they're going to make a great team in the years to come!
