When a woman named Sophia was in college, she lived with five other girls in a dorm. One night, someone broke into their pad and stole everything of value. No one got hurt, but they knew they needed extra protection, so they decided to get a dog.
Sophia and her friends went to the humane society in their town and met Swanson, a stray dog rescued not too long ago. According to the workers, no one expressed interest in the dog. But when Sophia saw Swanson, she instantly knew he was the one, and her friends felt the same.
Swanson lived with the girls for the remainder of college. When they graduated and Sophia got married, he moved in with her and her husband. He spent more time with his new dad and soon created an unbreakable bond.
The dog’s relationship with his dad is incredibly adorable. The first time they met, Swanson wiggled his butt and tail as he walked toward his dad. Swanson knew that the person in front of him was his soul mate.
Despite being with his mom first, Swanson makes it clear that his dad is his favorite. He initiates cuddle time with his dad but not with his mom. He prefers to go on long walks with Dad and not with Mom.
Sophia’s heart melts every time she sees how well Swanson gets along with her husband. But sometimes, she can’t help but feel a little jealous. She’s the one who adopted him, but she feels like a spare parent, and he’d spend time with her only when her husband isn’t around.
Swanson was adopted as added protection for his mom and her friends, but he is in no way a guard dog. He adores people, and he will try to befriend everyone he meets. He likes balloons and he plays with them so gently.
His dad may be his favorite, but Swanson never forgets how his mom changed his life. When he senses that she’s having a rough day, he prances toward her with a little gift he picked up from the floor. He is there every time she needs him.
