DH text me pictures from a camping trip hes on with DS. Someone at the camp ground has 2 golden retrievers and 1 Australian shepherd with them and DS was LOVING them. I've been trying to get DH on board to get a Golden for years now. DS always plays with the dogs next door when he can and I've been saying for ages how good a dog would be for him. (Mooch is pretty attached to him too; just not playful at 17 1/2.) Maybe now he can see what I've been trying to tell him all this time!
