Proud Older Brother Won't Leave Their Side

Getting a dog before you plan to have a child can be challenging and something you really need to think about. And while there are some dogs that won't cope well with a child in the house, there are other dogs that will instantly step into the big sibling role. Judging by this photo, that's exactly what happened with this little sausage! Since the baby arrived, this dog has not left its mama's side.

This adorable dog seems to be enjoying his big brother role, too. That cute smile says it all - and just look at that contented cuddle! He's not worried about being overshadowed.
