A Dogs Best Friend

Lately every night our house is filled with Allyson's screaming and Butters barking. Butters does not love all the attention of hugs and kisses, though he will sometimes initiate playing with Allyson. Sometimes they play together with dog toys. He will bring the toy to her and drop it near by her reach and as they play Allyson giggles and screams with excitement. Lately however they have been playing chase. You see Allyson whips out her stroller and follows him around with it. He barks. She screams. This could easily go on for twenty minutes if not longer. She loves playing this game and often is played two or three times a day and often right before bed time. At the end of the day when we go through our night time rituals we wave night-night to daddy and then butters. Sometimes if we forget butters, she is looking around in the hallway for him if he hasn't followed us to her room, to make sure he doesn't feel left out of the game.
