Rafael Mantesso, from São Paulo, Brazil, had a really rough 30th birthday. Instead of having a super-fun party celebrating the end of the most confusing decade of one’s life, his wife left him. She took everything from the apartment: the furniture, the cookware, the art that hung on the walls…but she did leave one thing behind…
And it’s all because this dog dad decided to do some doodling during a pup nap one day.
People around the world fell in love with these simple but captivating line drawings.
Because his namesake, Jimmy Choo, caught on to his good looks and unique style…
But in the midst of all this celebrity, the two are still the best of friends.
Often interrupting Mantesso’s phone calls by bringing him toys or crying for attention.
On the other hand, if he’s in the mood for a nap, and dad is trying to watch TV…
Mantesso’s favorite pieces are when he’s seen his pup as a superhero or a rockstar…
Because Jimmy loves to play with his pop, and these photo sessions give him that opportunity!
These two really know how to make the most out of the hand they’re dealt!

It’s amazing to see something so fruitful come out of one really, really terrible day. It just goes to show what a good attitude and drive can bring you, as long as you’re optimistic about life. Remember to follow Mantesso and Jimmy on Instagram, and to check out their amazing photo book!
