But you know as I was rubbing that dog, I realized that it goes both ways. You know that that dog needed a friend. I got a feeling that Bo was glad to see me coming. After what Leigh had done to him! I was trying to comfort that dog, saying that she"s rough on me sometimes too son, but we're going to make it through this! I'm just kidding!
