  • Welcome back!

    We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.

"Weird" or funny things/habits your dog likes?

Bea has been a normal, healthy, active pup since arrival - just enjoys life! But she has one really odd "like" LOL - she loves to have her fingers(toes?) stroked; front paws only. Now most, if not all, dogs I've owned aren't really fussy about people fiddling with their paws. But Bea will whine for us to take one of her front paws in our hand and stroke the tops of her "fingers". No they're not itchy as she doesn't bother with them herself, she just loves to have them petted - she'll lie next to you on the couch for hours and not move a muscle as long as you are paying attention to her front paws LOL. Weird pup...:p

I don't know about things she likes so much, as she hasn't been with us that long, but I know she dislikes having her rump scratched! Our 'blab' loves it, but Lila hates it!

Titan loves his massage I give him at the end of the day. He lays on the bed while I massage his legs, belly and neck. It totally relaxes him to where he falls asleep. Nope...he's not spoiled.

Kryten really likes Grapefruit Perrier plastic bottles. He enjoys chewing on any bottle but if you have one of those bottles he will try to steal it off the table or out of your hand.

Junior loves to get his armpits scratched. He'll sit down next to me on the couch and lightly paw at me until I scratch his armpits.

Odin loves static electricity. If he finds a static filled blanket he'll go back and forth over it until it is no longer static filled. It was SO irritating when he was a puppy because he'd come up behind me and go back and forth shocking us both and enjoying every second of it lol.

Mateo also loves his massages. At first, i was only giving him an "end of the day" massage, but now he will sometimes paw at my legs after we have come in from our long morning walk until I give him a little massage... (I know, I know...who has who trained, LOL?)

He loves it so much, his eyes become half-closed, and sometimes he will even purr with pleasure...after a few minutes, he will slump to the floor, completely asleep. :)

Max will not go down the stairs without a stuffed animal in his mouth. When we go between levels, he has to have a stuffie in his mouth. It's almost like OCD...he comes to the edge of the stairs, I have to already be down at least 2 steps, he whines, goes back to the other room, gets a stuffie, comes to the stairs, walks back again and then finally comes down the stairs with me in front to lead him. It's the same thing every time!
He also plays a game where he drops or throws something down the stairs. Then he lays down at the top for me to get it...like a baby throwing his cup and laughing.
Crazy puppy. Not sure what I'd do without him though.

Zoey hates her paws touched, strokes or handles in any way, but loves her butt rubs, and when you gently stroke her face, abby loves her butt rubs, the top of her head scratched and her chest rubbed and doesn't mind having her feet messed with.

Kryten loves his elbow massages. I started them to help with range of motion after his surgery and he will now try and force you to give him one by placing his paw in your lap or hand.

When I come home Lorde fold in half sideways so her face and butt are both facing me then hops around till she gets her butt rubs. Prince has a favorite place to be scratched that took me forever to find as he's not a fan of head or neck petting, but loves his face like his cheeks scratched hard, also if he tastes something he doesn't like he just hangs his tongue out of his mouth and wiggles it then starts sticking it out closing his mouth and pulling it back in scraping his teeth to try and get it off

Bosco likes us to stroke him right between his eyes.

Start about half way up his nose and go right between his eyes and stop half way on top of his head.

And yes I believe he purrs with it! lol

That's Kryten's favorite spot too. You can see his eyes start to roll back in his head.

My Koloff would go crazy if he could not get to one of his stuffies if anyone came to the door-like a present! He would bring you a toy as you came in the house-so sweet! I miss that boy...
Brodie has several little habits-sticks-she goes nuts when a stick in the yard is even moved! She loves to carry and eat sticks. You cant do any yard work with her with you as any stick movement is cause for craziness.No way I can sweep the kitchen with a broom-looks too much like a stick!
She STILL has a thing about shoe laces. The devil comes out and she will latch on to your shoes and not let you pass. Less frequent than it was but we cont to work on it. She is not quite 18 months yet.

That sounds like Jiggers. He now needs to have 2 toys (or one large one) in his mouth when he greets someone.

Jake also loves it when we stroke between his eyes, he will put his head in my lap and sit there for hours as long as I am rubbing between his eyes.
