I am pretty lucky because my hubby loves our little Louie. It's the most ridiculous thing watching him baby talk to Louie-but I love it, this grown man with a husky voice trying to baby talk...very comical but it melts my heart. He is not a fan of big dogs, he just can't deal with all the hair and when they get stinky, etc... He just likes to "chill" with our little Louie on his lap!
