Have not had Cruiser all that long to figure out his little quirks but I have noticed he likes to get his nose into my hair which is long, and what I thought was sniffing my hair I figured out is actually chewing on it. It reminds me of our mutt farm dogs when they would search each other for ticks lol he just shoves his nose in my hair and starts to pull on it leaving it all slobbery and if I try to move he just moves with me with his face still in my hair. I also noticed just the other day I was reading intently and knew he jumped on the couch gave him a pat on the head and back to reading I went. Soon after his pat on the head I felt the sleeve of my sweatshirt wet on my skin, he was nibbling on it and pulling on it. When I looked at him he just stopped and looked at me and went back at it. Luckily his stuffed toy was in reach and I replaced my sweatshirt with his toy!

Olive sometimes will turn her bottom around to my face. This is so I will give her backside a scratch. She has done this to friends too. She has no shame in her game:)Also, when I put her in "our" bed, she rubs her face on the comforter and sheets to rub her boogies off.
Be kind Spay and Neuter

Lunch time here, and a small boned fawn bitch denied my lunch executed a well rehearsed raptor leap on to poor Atoka. Then lept back on my lap for a treat.
. . . . raptor leap, followed by a leap to the lap -- super agile and smart to boot, especially if she scored a treat!
Rufus has a few unique quirks....
He will only go up the stairs on the right hand side (you can see on the carpet exactly where he insists on walking lol and it's a brand new carpet!)
He will sit on the stairs, but only on the second step
He likes to stretch his front legs out, then his back legs followed up with a yawn, he does this ritual every morning
He cries like a baby if he is outside and I go inside without him (I secretly love this)
He has a little dinner dance that he insists on performing before his dish is set down
He won't touch his RMB with his foot, he would rather struggle than get his delicate little footsies dirty
He will not walk in a puddle at all, yet loves the sea....
These are to name just a few, he is a strange little thing
Rufus, my curly tailed best friend x
Leo will only get up on the bed after I pat it three times, then he whines until I lift the covers to let him underneath.
When he is on the sofa/chair and you want to move him to sit down he goes as far into a corner as possible and lies on his back the harder you try to move him the more he determines to remain where he is and is like an immovable object lol!!
Ruby won't walk in puddles either. The first day we took her for a walk it had been raining heavily, as we crossed a small road there was a very large puddle, she just stepped into it, not I presume knowing what it was, she got a nasty shock!! very wet and looked at us as if to say "what was that for" she steers clear now lol!
When she is picked up she always huffs in your face, its quite funny when someone who doesn't expect it gets a huff!!!
She hates having her eyes cleaned, and squirms everywhere to get down even when promised a treat to keep still
When she knows her food is coming she does a crazy little dance and makes a squeaky sound!!

Buster paws at my dressing gown cord so i'll open it and he can sit inside, he goes to the cat and rolls on his back so she'll groom him, he loves that!
