One of my favorite things to do to Harry

is to rub my bare feet on his chest while he's asleep at my feet. The feeling of his hair on my feet is so nice and soothing.

What things do you find soothing about your dogs?

I absolutely love cuddling up and watching tv with all three of my spoos. Sport is my footrest, Betty Jo snuggles beside me and Jenny lays on the back of the couch. I'm surrounded by love and besides who needs a blanket with all the spoo warmth.
lol, I guess my favorite thing to do (with all my babies) is twirl their ears around my finger. That sounds odd, but I can't think of a better way of describing it. It's moreso me making a circle with my finger around their ear (where it is all head) over and over... their ears just flop around, and they don't seem to mind.

PB will usually fall asleep while I do this... but that's not saying much, since I can just hold him and he will start to nod off. :)

I know what you are saying. It's almost like twirling your own hair.
I LOVE the silky feeling of Paris' neck when it's FRESHLY shaved (with a 30 or 40 blade) it's just so mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm lol
I also like, when I'm standing, to stand over Paris and clasp my hands under her chest and lift her front end up so she's standing facing the same way as me, but my arms and hands have dissappeared in her fur. heh.

Exactly! My pups love it, and will stand there as long as you'll do it.
Just general cuddling Saffy.
I twirl her ears too, and I love it when she has been freshly shaven, and it is so silky smooth.
The sides of her neck are so nice, just under her ears.
Also, after a bath, her ears smell so nice, and are so soft and silky and I love smooching her, sounds creepy lol
No it doesn't. Just sounds like you love your dog.
I LOOOVE giving Matrix and Mitch big loud smooches on their faces. Matrix HATES it, but Mitch doesn't seem to mind. I also love snuggling with Mitchy on the floor or bed and he rests his head on top of mine. Matrix isn't a huge cuddler, but he loves to squash himself against me on the couch and rest his head on my lap. He has a tendency to drool when hes sleeping though...so as soon as I feel a warm moistness, he has to sleep elsewhere.

and to add: This is a bad habit I started with Matrix. When I'm standing, Matrix will put his snout between my legs and I scratch behind his ears. He LOVES it, and pushes against me. He does this to company that comes over. They don't seem to appreciate being "crotched" by a poodle snout.
LOL yeah I doubt that's a crowd pleaser. It's funny that standards like to nudge you in the crotch. Harry does it and Jasper did it too, very silly puppies.
I love rubbing the upper part of elphies chest while we lay in bed
her puppy fur is leaving so its all soft and silky there with loose curls

and when we're being fiesty and playing together
I like getting her to bark really loud and run in circles around the kitchen table xDD
if I get her really round up she'll do laps around the house
threw the kitchen into my bedroom back threw the kitchen and into the living room where she dives onto anyone sitting on the sofa xDDD
Someday I should have my hubby take a picture of how we like to spend our evenings... Picture this:

I sit on the sofa with the recliner part up. Meau curls up between my legs, Juliet is plastered up against my thigh, Hannah is sprawled across my belly and there's a cat on my chest (this is all before Lucy came to live with us - now she tries to squeeze in there someplace, too) :) It's very relaxing to me to have a living blanket except for when the phone rings and i need to get up!! Uuuggh! lol!

Oh yes, Eli does this to everyone just once. lol If you are standing with your back towards him, then you'll get a quick nose poke on your butt. lol It never fails!
That's a bad habit I also instilled in my Aussie. He loves to get between my legs with his head in back, butt in front so I can scratch that sweet spot just in front of his tail. He can't help it his head is crotch heighth. He really isn't a crotch sniffer.

I like to do the same!

Poodle smooches are the best kind! Meau sleeps in bed with me and as I'm falling asleep I'll just rub her all over, she streches and turns so I can get all the good scratchy spots. Normally she lays on her side right next to me, and she always lifts her head up for kisses. I love kissing her right on her nose between the eyes, and everywhere else of course! Meau is a cuddler and she enjoys our nightly bonding as much as I do. It's relaxing for both of us and I love being able to spend time with my girl.
I love tummy fur...
it's so soft, so sweet and that smooshy little belly is way too enticing.
So ,my favorit thing is to stroke my fingers along Ray Ray's chest and belly when he rolls over.


Oh oh, and his chin, I love to scratch his chin.
I LOVE smooching Rileys freshly shaven nose or cheeks!!! I also love stroking his cheeks when he is shaved. If he has a large shaved area on his stomach (haircut or ultrasound shave) then i love *thumping* it! He also loves to go between my legs and have me scratch his butt (cant say its my favorite thing).
I love to rub their chests and play in the curls. I, also, love to stroke freshly shaven cheeks and necks. Sort of reminds me of when I was little and rubbed the satin on the blankets. I also love to walk with my hand on top of their heads; I love that connection and they don't mind it. They are just the right height for it. And, I can't resist walking by one that is sleeping without rubbing my bare foot on the belly. The fur feels so good between my toes.

Ahem, I get the bump into the crotch all the time by both of them. If I am sitting, they will come over and push the top of their heads between my legs with their nose facing the floor and wait for me to stroke them. If I stop; I get bumped for more!
I love to take my bare feet and feel their fur. I love how Cooper will take his head and rub my legs in the morning. ( I think he is rubbing his eye burger on me...LOL) I love to talk baby talk and see his head tilt to one side listening to me. I love to lay in the floor and look up into Randy's face as he is looking down on me. Or when I am sitting and he comes and lays his head in my lap and looks up at me with those georgous brown eyes. They are all so special. I can't imagine not having them in my life.
