Things I like about dogs

The dogs have settled in very well.  They are very relaxed, and we're getting into a routine though we haven't settled on what food to have quite yet.
There are so many pleasures that I want to record:
  • Logan wags his tail so hard that when it's wet it slaps his sides
  • Chance stretches out his back legs along the floor in the morning & pulls them along & looks very sweet
  • They keep my feet warm on the sofa
  • Logan likes to greet you with a teddy in his mouth.  He holds it very gently, doesn't chew it
  • Chance gets up on his back legs to see over hedges if he thinks there's something interesting
  • They hardly bark, and they're friendly to other people & dogs
  • Logan enjoys being brushed & blowdried.  He positively wants a towel thrown over him after a walk
  • Chance likes to give a little nose lick - he's very affectionate
I'm sure all the health benefits are true, they just make me feel very calm and happy, they are a lovely pair and I'm so pleased to have found them.

Glad the dogs are to your liking. Bit surprised though: from posts on Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr thought you really weren't that fussed about them.

I know! I've become a dog bore. Like people are obsessed with their babies, I just keep relating sweet little anecdotes about them.

Sounds like you've done incredibly well! Looking forward to a team walk! Re food - Spike didn't settle down for ages but now pretty much happy with chicken,veg and rice, my leftovers or whatever delicacy is carelessly left on a counter top!
