Does your fluff have any quirky, or funny habits?

Rocky does the funniest things...one is when I massage him when he's on my lap facing me, he yawns the BIGGEST yawn from such a little pup! He stays perfectly still, but continues to yawn....am I boring him? :HistericalSmiley:

He also loves his belly rubs...he turns completely around and stares into my eyes with his face upside down.

When I get home, he jumps all around licking me and little growls and baby bites...I try to not make a big deal of coming in the door, but he makes me laugh...I just love his quirkiness.

At night when I put his dinner down and say, "Ok Rock, go eat dinner." He runs full circle around the table and then goes and eats.

When we take him to the park, he runs around as fast as a rabbit, can he be part bunny, LOL? And then he lays down, stares at me, then begins running again in circles on the grass.

What about your fluff?

Mine like to sleep w/ their neck almost in a pretzel,hurts my neck,just to see it. Sasha my sassy one "tells me off" if she doesn't get her way,she's so funny.
Bitsy and Rylee do the spin and sit before pooing. Rylee will asume the position before I put his "man pants on.... He will turn his bum toward me and put his head down,waiting for mommy to lift up his front to put the belly band on him "man pants".
He's such a smart little guy...
Amy our black cocker (at the bridge),used to yodel when we'd call out "kitty,kitty",sometimes she'd lay on her back and schooch along the floor ,pushing with her back feet and yodel,all while laying on her back...or she'd belly crawl ,wiggle her little stub and yodel at us.

Amber and Amy,our cockers both loved their queaky named George,we'd tell them,go get George and they'd single it out from all the other squeakies,Amber still does it. Back in the 1980's some company came out w/ a George Bush and Gorbachev in a Santa suit dog squeaky set,so we got them ,but the only one they liked to munch on was George...

ROTFLMBO!!!!!! Oh you're killing me, that is so funny! Munching on George is just hilarious!:rofl:
Tiffany sometimes tries to bury her food. She'll rub her nose on the floor, toward the food. If there are toys around, she'll shove the toys with her nose and she'll try to get them on top of her food dish.

She's also obsessed with her piggy toy. She always manages to find it, even if it's buried under other toys or packed up in a bag.
lol great thread...
dolce takes one kibble at a time to his bed n eats it there ...

he also humps his bed...

when i take him to the park with grass he loves to rub his face in the dirt n in the grass , he told me hes getting a facial.

he gets bossy n barks to be put on the couch or on beds cause hes so small he cant get up. lol

he also spins n spins before pooping..

when they ring the doorbell he goes berzerk w the barking ...

and when he gets the zoomies he zooms by , does his happy twirl dance n then zooms the opposite way ...

mine also hops they do look part bunnies...

if u ignore him he will lick the skin off u .lol

Vi snorts and 'smiles' when she's excited. All I have to do is LOOK at her and she 'smiles' at me and gets excited...it's the cutest thing.
She also runs in circles when she's excited. I thought that was cute until I realized it's because she was living in a cage for the first 3 years of her life and that's all she could do... (she was a breeder I rescued to those who don't know)
~C~
Oh...she also likes to sleep on her back with her paws up like she's begging and her back legs spread wide open LOL I tell her it's not very lady like, but she just smiles at me...
~C~
Dare likes to rub his face on the carpet or kitchen floor. We thought he was itchy, but no. Sometimes it's an itch, usually it's because he just drank water and he wants to wipe his mouth. It's funny, his front legs become limp and useless, and he shoves himself around with his back feet.
Vi does that too! But it's because she's excited or just trying to get comfortable, not from drinking water LOL
Malts are so silly :)

That's exactly what Tyler does. I call it herding. He herds his food in a sweeping motion. He'll come at it from all angles and sometimes move the dish. It's bizarre and I remember posting about it after I first got him. At that point I think he was the only one to do it. :brownbag:

Tyler does his sneezing thing at me when he wants attention. I work at home and about noon he comes over to me and makes the loudest sneezing noise you ever heard :new_shocked:...and keeps doing it until I give him attention and usually take him to the park.

He also lifts his left leg if you go anywhere near there to pet him...up goes the leg.:w00t: Looks like he's about to pee but no, he just stands there hoping you'll tickle his belly from underneath. Sometimes dogs come over to sniff him and oh yeah, up with the leg. What can I say, he's easy. :blush::HistericalSmiley:

Tiffany also tries to bury her pee if she goes on a potty pad (she usually goes outside, but she uses pads occasionally). She shoves the pad with her nose until she folds it over and her pee is covered. :blink:

And she does the leg lifting thing when people are petting her too! Sometimes, if you keep petting her around there long enough, she just keeps lifting her leg higher and higher until she nearly falls over. :huh:
I'm loving these stories. Keep them coming!

Rocky buries his nose in the carpeting and I have nose prints all over my bedroom carpet.
OH my gosh...Rocky does that sneezing thing for attention too, he keeps sneezing till you look at him..that is so funny that Tyler does that too! I wonder how many others do that?:smrofl:

Micky's thing is that he loves to kick. He kicks out his back legs and sort of stomps around when he gets excited or wants to play. Its so funny. I still need to get a video of it. If you get down on the floor with him....oh boy watch out, he will kick the heck out of you! Then he turns around sort of in a circle and teases you with his tail. Like he fans his face with his own tail, almost like its a feather, and he's trying to hide his face with it.
ha ha ha, I would love to see that video!!!
what a lovely thread! just lost my boy hadley but he had many funny traits!
running backward and forward for the perfect place to poop!
kicking out with his back legs
when he yawned he did a michael jackson impression
gettin one piece of food at a time and bringing it all the way in to the living room to eat!
chucking bottle tops or treats with his mouth
the list goes on ...
LOL .... aren't all of their quirky habits just too funny! Bailey also does the spin before the poop but the funniest thing is when I try to give him a "cookie" he won't take it from my hand, he will toss his head to the side wanting me to toss it and then he attacks it, throwing it around and pouncing on it like he has to kill it before it's edible!
Vikki, I cannot believe it..Rocky jerks his head too to tell me to throw it, too funny. Then he attacks it and plays with it before eating it too.
