\nThought I would share a few current photos. The photo on the left was taken a few days after Colby came home with me. He was a little bigger than Scooby but only by a few inches.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\nThe photo on the right was taken yesterday. I think Colby may have grown a little, don’t you?\u00a0<\/p>\n

\nFor years, we would have to ask Scooby to please get off of Carma Poodale. Every time she laid on the couch, he would lay on her back. There were many times we would have to physically remove him from her. She never complained even when we knew her back was hurting. There were times she would paw my foot and look up at me with those big brown eyes and it was my cue to tell him to get off of her.<\/p>\n

Flash forward to today and now Scooby has the pleasure of feeling a poodle sitting on him. Colby finds comfort by leaning on his big little brother. When we are riding in the truck, Colby leans on his brother. When they are on the couch, Colby leans on Scooby.<\/p>\n

\n\"Chihuahua<\/a><\/div>\n

Scooby doesn’t know what to think about it but he allows it. If he doesn’t want Colby on him, he moves and gets on his bed on the bench or lays on hubby’s lap.<\/p>\n

\nDo your dogs lean on each other?\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
