Tex, our golden retriever, absolutely adores the newest addition to our family. He of course was mine and Phil's first baby... until Philip came along but he doesn't mind sharing us at all. In fact, Texie loves his new little brother more than words can say... and I think he even loves him more than Phil and me (he must be taking after his Gigi, Papa Doc, Mimi and Grande). He has become so extra protective since we brought Philip home from the hospital that he will even bark these days if the wind blows the wrong way outside. He loves Philip and gets very upset with Phil and I if he hears the baby crying. Tex runs around to find us frantically... its like he's saying, "mom, dad - are you going to get him - he's crying (as if we cant hear him)!" Texie even lets Philip ly on the ground and pull his ears and he just lays there as calm as can be... what can I say... a dog is a boy's best friend!
