Andrew and His Boys

All dogs love Andrew.  He is the dog whisper - has been his whole life.  While in med school, he trained Bailey (his parents' black lab) to duck hunt.  They spent hours working together and even had a few successful hunts!  Bailey is the most well behaved, well mannered dog ever.  On the other side of his hip is the dog that is semi-boarder line worst behaved dog in the family (only the lap dogs are worse).  This picture was taken right after we got to Macon on Friday/Saturday morning.  Bailey greeted us at the car and never once left Andrew's side.  Tucker loves his daddy much more than me so of course he stayed on the other side.  We even slept with both dogs in the room.  Tucker had to sleep beside Andrew (on the floor of course) and Bailey (the dog that actually does what you say, when you say it, and will stay there until you tell him otherwise) had to sleep beside me on the floor.  We figured Tucker won't share his bed and didn't want to deal with a dog feud at 4am.  It was hilarious all weekend - I would be fussing at Tucker trying my best to get him to do something (he is and has a hard head), and I would look over and Bailey was already doing what I was begging Tucker to do and I wasn't even talking to him.

Two reasons for posting this - one - in case you want to compare Tucker to a "large for the breed" lab and two - to share just how much dogs love Andrew and how much they love him.

I am pretty sure the only thing to have made this picture any better for Andrew would have been to have Annie (the chocolate lab that was already upstairs to avoid the monster dog) and Maggie (his family's lab when he was younger) in the picture with him.
