One of our most prominent "first" memories with Lauki was taking him out to meet our friend's Boxer. He was a tiny puppy and the much bigger Boxer did not hold back when playing with him. He would lay his shoulder into Lauki and send him rolling across the grass. Now, fast forward to last week when the all grown up Lauki was introduced to our friend's pair of puppies. We thought we'd see a replay of that day in the park years ago, this time with Lauki using his weight and size to his advantage. It was not to be. He was gentle and kind, instead -- more of a big brother or father figure.
