Yes, Yes, they do! My hubby couldn't resist taking these pics of our daughter, Lyric, sleeping with Rocky!

Your daugther is adorable. I can tell Rocky loves Lyiric very much. Lyric is an unusual name, very pretty.

Beautiful name for a beautiful girl! And how wonderful it is to have them love each other so much. You are very lucky!

I babysit for a 10mth old little boy and Sophie loves him. She will let him do whatever he wants to her. So I am always playing referee so he doesn't hurt her. She will even bring her toys to him. I have to keep his door shut while he is sleeping because she will try to wake him up to play. They are very cute together.

Your babies are adorable.

Shelley, thanks for sharing those pix. Lyric is indeed a very pretty girl. It was very important to me that Bo bond with my children since he was a Christmas gift for them. Being home with me all day, I was afraid that he would favor me and ignore them and that's how it was when he was very little. But now he has far exceeded my expectations. He jumps up and lays next to my 11 year old son and my 18 year old daughter and is so excited when they come home. He loves my husband and has become a companion to our 8 year old Schnauzer. He is a joy to be around.

What cute pictures! My Yorkie loves my 6 year old son and 4 year old daughter but he's forming a special bond with my daughter. Maybe because she shows him so much attention.

Very Sweet! The negative yorkies and kids stuff is just a myth. Chewy is my dog, he was given to me for mother's day, but I fear that my 6 year old is going to be his true master!!!!!

Thanks, everyone for such nice compliments! Although, when my daughter finds out that there are pictures of her with her bed head, she might not be too thrilled!

We adopted our daughter,Mandi, 18mo ago, she was 11 mo when we brought her home, Willy was 3 1/2yrs & he could not kiss us & her enough when we got home. He loved her immediately. Mandi, now 2 1/2 loves to throw his toys for him & walk him around our yard on his leash. I let Willy know that Mandi has him & he stays vey close to her & wont pull & tug like he will for me. They do however fight over who is going to sit on my lap. They get along GREAT.

Oh yes, I agree - they definitely do! Tatum is supposed to be "my baby" but she knows exactly what time that bus comes after school and is sitting where she can see out the window watching for the bus. She has a cuddle relationship with mom and dad and reserves most of her play for the girls!
