Dog has been showing off his new girlfriend since going public with their romance.

Earlier this week, Dog posted a photo of the two hand-in-hand walking their dog.

He captioned the photo: “Out enjoying today’s beautiful weather with Lola the bulldog. We walk by faith, not by sight. Living our lives in a manner consistent with our confident belief in God’s promises. 2 Corinthians 5:7.”

Francie even posted a love letter from her boyfriend.

The hand-written note dated April 21, 2020, read: “What we thought was the end has become just the beginning!

“You are the head and not the tail. I will walk along side you everywhere God leads us.”

The letter concluded: “You are my woman created by my rib not by my heal and you will walk by my side all the days of our lives.”

The couple met months ago when Dog called her husband Bob to do some yard work at his Colorado home.

Francie informed Dog that Bob had died of cancer several months before Beth’s death.

The two began talking and grew close.

While Dog’s family didn’t approve of his romance with ex-girlfriend Moon Angell, his daughter Lyssa and family friend Rainy Robinson exclusively told The Sun that they approve of his relationship with Francie.

Dog even told The Sun exclusively that he plans to marry Francie.

He said: “It’s going really good. It’s a God relationship because it’s just like a miracle. It’s a miracle how we met and it’s a miracle how great we’re getting along.

“There will never be another Mrs. Dog but it looks like there will be a final Mrs. Chapman.”
