This Dog

Buddy is well...special. He's huge, but he thinks he's small. He still bounds like a puppy, but he's huge. He's dumb as a doorknob. But then there's this:
Issa came home sick from school Monday. She was truly fine when we dropped her off, but there is a nasty stomach bug going around that strikes from nowhere. The poor kid got sick in the stairwell--twice. The nurse had to give her extra clothes, and she missed her chorus concert that night. It was a very ugly six hours of sick followed by a day of recovery. This dog didn't leave her side.

This morning, she headed back to school, but I think Buddy thought she should rest one more day. This is how she ate breakfast, with him snuggled on her hip. It's a good thing his sweetness makes up for his dumbness.
