Yes, he is one of the most "human" people I've ever met. When my husband deployed to Iraq right when the war started I drove him to the base, Rosco was in the truck and he knew something was up. He put his chin on Dh's arm the whole ride. I SWEAR to you, when we got home, I fell to the floor in tears, and he licked my tears and leaned into me so I could hug him....he is an angel sent from above. We love him so much....but he's going blind and we just cherish everyday with him. By the way, I LOVE your avatar, is that your dog, he is SOO cute!!!
