When Meghan Specksgoor rejected her dad’s request for a grandchild and made it clear that all she’s giving him for now are grandpups, he was far from happy, but things changed pretty quickly. Even though her dad’s dreams of getting a grandchild is far from becoming a reality, Chance, Meghan’s 4-year-old dog, seems to perfectly fill in the spot.

When Meghan had to go to New York City, she had to leave Chance behind in Midlothian, Virginia, under her dad’s care. While Meghan was away, his dad was busy being the coolest grandpa ever, spoiling, and treating Chance to anything he’d like. In the middle of their fun day, they kept Meghan updated with hilarious texts and photos about their activities, and it looks like granddad really has a knack for taking care of his grandpup.
