Mans/Dads (best) friend

Mom and my brothers went to North Shore Animal League (I think that was the name) to look for a pet dog. We didn't have a particular breed or look, so we went in with open minds. We decided on a black lab mix and named 'this guy' Checkers, based on the black and white color scheme going on. We brought him home, and like any other puppy, had to endure endless pairs of shoes and nips at the feet and ankles. My dad really didn't like him at first. Actually it seemed like he didn't want to have anything to do with Checkers. Time went on, and as as Checkers grew older, he grew on my dad. I know when we weren't there, my dad would have conversations with Checkers, and he would probably even wait for the dog to answer his questions. Checkers was a stubborn dog, just like my dad and I think that's why they eventually got along. I am hoping they are together now and that Checkers is looking out for him and my dad is taking care of the 'big guy'. Miss you guys.
