This is a pretty random post, but I just had to share.
When we went to California last year, Nathan won a little stuffed minion (from the movie Despicable Me) while playing a game at Six Flags. We brought it home, and Dave adopted it for himself.
He doesn't chew on it or try to destroy it- he just carries it around with him. It's the very first thing he does when he comes inside- he finds his minion.
I found this on Pinterest, and instantly thought of little Dave.
I love that silly pup.
