My husband loves all of our 3, but he has bonded with Darcy the most,,,he has a ton of nicknames for her "Little Lady", "baby girl" and "Boobie", I have no idea why. When I asked, he said its because her name is Boobie
He was the same way, he said I could have one dog, and he would have nothing to do with it! LOL LOL. When he comes home he makes the boys sit, and he shakes hands with them, then he picks Darcy up and loves all over her.
He was smart to never give them treats, they do not harrass him for food like they do me, but he knows their treat times, and will remind me sometimes before they do!
