A boy and his dog

I love this picture.  They were waiting for gramma and pappap to arrive the day before Jenson’s birthday party.  Boof is funny with Jenson.  She wants to be near him often, but not quite “touching distance”, unless she wants to lick his face.  Or if we are taking his picture – then she tries to get in the photo because she hopes that will get her a treat (like it does when we are trying to get a pic of them together and have to bribe her).

The other day we were all laying on our bed and Jenson starting crawling towards the foot of the bed – Boof got up from her spot and laid in between him and the end of the bed.  Obviously we wouldn’t have let him get close to the edge, but apparently she didn’t trust us and wanted to make sure he didn’t crawl off.  I thought that was awesome.  She’s not quite ready to be his best friend, but she’ll come around.  In the meantime, she’ll just keep eye on him from the distance.
