Let me add to the last statement....any of us who have had a cherished pet,possesion,etc are all Calvins.I named my first dog Hobbes after my favorite comic character.She was to me what Hobbes was to Calvin.Best friend ever! When she passed I lost my true friend and companion of 14 years! The emptiness in my heart and house were unbearable so I got a new dog already named Ivy.She has the heart and soul of Hobbes.This was 9 years ago.The chance to get a male golden retriever was upon me about 4 years ago.He is Calvin! With his mischief,energy and love of his sister Ivy I feel so blessed. So anyone who has any kind of bond with anything or anyone are truly"Calvin and Hobbes".
