This is our little dog Boone.  He is literally my constant companion when I'm at home.  He follows me everywhere.  I trip over him constantly.  If I'm standing at the stove cooking, he is on my feet.  If I'm eating at the table, he is on my feet.  If I sit down, he is on my lap.  Sometimes I joke with him and pretend to sit on one chair but jump up quickly and move to another chair.  He will jump up and off chairs until I finally stop and pick one to sit on.  He sits on my lap when I'm sewing, at the computer, or writing.  Best of all he keeps my feet warm when I take a nap (he's not allowed on our bed so I nap on the couch). We have had him for almost 10 years and he has truly been a difficult dog.  He hates strangers and has tried to bite many people visiting our home.  I now keep him in his crate when we have visitors. Today while watching General Conference with Boone asleep in my lap I wished everyone could see what a wonderful dog Boone is when he is relaxed and happy.

Boone loves you the most because he knows you've been the nicest to him. I guess you deserve a the title of "Boone's Best Friend" I'm okay with that!

I myself have felt fear due to boone's need to protect the fam from strangers, I would have like to see the relaxed boone, I think your making up stories.
