My stepdaughter and her husband and kids came up for a week this Christmas. Her kids are so sweet. They call me G-Mommy!
Anyways - Logan is 2. You wouldn't BELIEVE how good he is with dogs! My dogs both obey him, without question. He says sit, they sit. He can barely talk! He walks them all around the house - even Max! I can't believe this 2 year old can walk Max without his gentle lead on, but Max does whatever Logan wants him to do. Logan fell while he was walking Max and he just pulled himself up by Max's collar.
Logan was trying to give Jake a toy. He'd say "Here Jake" and give the toy to Jake, then Max would steel it. Then Logan just took the toy away from Max, kind of slapped Max on the nose (not hard) and said "No Max!" and gave the toy back to Jake. Would you believe Max actually listened to this baby?! And he had absolutely no fear whatsoever.
Logan weighs 22 lbs. Max weighs 91!
Oh - and this is so cute. My husband was babysitting. I was at work and the kids' parents were having some time out alone. Bob had just put Logan to bed, and Logan was fussing. Bob was just going to let him fuss for a while, but Max wouldn't allow it! He came and got Bob and absolutely insisted that Bob go take care of the baby. He barked and did the "follow me" thing and wouldn't take "no" for an answer! So Bob went up and tucked the baby in again, and then Max parked himself in the doorway of the bedroom and wouldn't move until the baby went to sleep. It was unbelievable!
Here they are:
He walked Jake around like this all day. I mean - for hours! This is the family I was going to give Jake to, by the way.
