Five-year-old Luc Gautreaux was introduced Thursday to the dog that will likely become his best friend, a 4?-month old black Labrador retriever named Shadow.

Boy and dog hit it off instantly, and Luc grew very excited as they played on the floor.

Then Luc told his grandmother, Lucinda Williams, that he was hungry. A Type-1 diabetic, Luc's family must check his blood sugar, which is generally between 75 and 220, before and after he eats.
