I never though I'd be "that person" who likes their dog more than you should, but here I am, picky about what I feed him, making sure he gets to run and play everyday, and always wanting him by my side. It's embarrassing really, but I know it will die down once I have real children. Nonetheless, he is my buddy, and he spends the most time with me.

For now, Jason and I keep practicing our "parenting skills" on Starbuck. Yeah, and it is already clear that I am a voice to be reckoned with.

Just look at that focus, and how well he is listeni-... nevermind |

Let's face it, he is just a loving puppy, trapped in the body of a bear.

Just a disclaimer, he doesn't jump on me like this. He does this only on command, if that makes you any less petrified of him. |
And I wouldn't have him any other way.
