J.J. Watt shares kiss with 'Sully' on Texans field
Sully, President Bush's former service dog, captured hearts after a photo went viral of him lying in front of the late president's casket.

HOUSTON, Texas (WPVI) -- Texans star J.J. Watt got quite the smooch on the field before Sunday night's game against the New England Patriots.

The team tweeted photos of Watt loving on none other than President George H.W. Bush's former service dog, Sully.

The Sully statue will be placed in the permanent collection at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum in College Station.

They captioned their tweet "13/10 would give Sully puppy kisses again."

Sully became famous after a photo of him lying in front of the president's casket was, perhaps, one of the most viewed and shared pictures following Bush's death.

Sully is to be honored Monday at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum in College Station where a statue of him will be unveiled.
