A girl and her dog

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!
