After yesterday's frustrated post, today is a better day. I thought I would list things I love about Maggie - feel free to join in!
1. How proud she looks when she gets a stick on our walks, she walks with her head and her tail high and looks at you to show it to you - and then usually walks really close to hit the backs of your legs with it.
2. The way she makes happy groaning noises when she's comfy. No matter how many times you hear it you always smile (everyone else does too!).
3. Her freckles
4. How happy and social she is with other dogs. I've never heard her growl and usually her tail is wagging like crazy. She would be one happy pup if she could spend her day wrestling with other dogs.
5. Her big paws that she isn't toooo bad about letting me hold while I clip her nails.
6. Her basset crazy time - she runs laps around our house picking up different toys as she runs.
7. How she figured out to paw at the door and then steal her favourite seat back from you when you get up to open the door.
8. What a good communicator she is when she wants something. She'll stomp on your foot to try to get you to play, she'll bang her dishes around when her water is out, she'll jump up on you for a scratch after she has done something wrong (it's like she's making sure we all still like each other)
9. That she's so gentle with children. She sniffs around my 6 month nephew and you never worry about her being aggressive (although she might knock him over with her butt by accident, I don't think she knows where she stops)
I know there are a bunch more - but that's it for now
