Hey JonBoy, it's no wonder that your mama fell head-over-heels in love with you. While you are certainly a handsome guy now, as a puppy you were outstanding in the looks department and those puppy eyes could have melted an iceberg. It is heartwarming to read such a story of mutual love and devotion. I think both of you won the "love & companion" lottery. Me and my three mutts (all rescues) wish the two of you many more years of the kind of happiness that you have already experienced. Just so you know, my three pups also claim the couch, recliners and beds as their own but they are very generous in allowing us household humans to utilize those items when they are not occupying them!
