Five-year-old Julian Becker and his 165 pound pet Newfoundland Max have been best buds around all their lives. To commemorate the friendship and to keep Julian's father, a Naval officer who is often away, in the loop, Julian's mom Stasha began taking photos. Stasha told the UK's Daily Mail, “Max usually sits there and takes orders from Julian. I just snap a few and post the photo that made me giggle the most”. Max loves to swim and nap in cold weather (good thing as they live in Washington state). According to Stasha, Max never takes his eyes off his good buddy.

Lot of details to absorb in this photo. Our favorite: Max the dog's fauxhawk. (Photo by Stasha Becker/Rex Features)

Hats off (or on) to Julian for sharing his blanket with his good buddy. Not that the furry beast needs it... (Photo by Stasha Becker/Rex Features)
