Meet the couple who let their dog make their big life decisions - such as revealing the gender and choosing the name of their baby. Erica and Frank Derise threw three tennis balls for two-year-old pooch Beau to chase - each with one name written on.
And when he returned with the 'Frankie' ball, that's what they chose for their son. Erica, 27, and Frank, 30, had also let golden retriever Beau reveal the gender - by tucking into a coloured cake.
Erica, a content creator, said: "We incorporate Beau into every major life event, he needs to be involved in everything. He's like our kid - we want him to be a part of things."
