most heartwarming thing your pet does

Timmy - he is just the friendliest dog, he absolutely loves people. there is just something about a dog as strong and powerful as a rottweiler, who wants nothing more in this world than to please you. it also helps that he has a "forever puppy face", you just can't get angry at his big brown eyes. it takes so little to make him happy, as long as he is around us, he is content. he has also come to love our before bed cuddles. he gets on the bed and he lays in the little spoon position and just cuddles for 10 minutes before we kick him off the bed to sleep. I just love that cuddle time with him.

When he thinks I'm his pillow

Probably one of the most heartwarming thing Heidi does that "gets" me every time is the way she turns into a wiggly waggly puppy when its time to love up on Buddy.  Buddy has and always will have a special place in Heidi's heart...he's like a "grandpa" to her.  She has always showed the utmost repect towards him, never ever has she done anything to upset or taunt him; or even initiate rough play.  Unlike her brother, Bruder.  LOL

Its very sweet.

My heart melts every time Buddy looks at me, period.

Bruder loves to be around my mom.  He is very sweet and gentle with her...he just knows he needs to be.

 When I smile at Toots, she starts wagging her nub, which in turn wiggles her whole body. Unconditional love at the drop of a hat.

I don't even know where to begin with neiko. He's my heart dog so just about everything he does warms my heart. The way he adores my nieces is so hard to explain. You have to see it to understand. He makes a great therapy dog too. Just the other day I took him to home depot with me and while we were walking to the garden dept this woman stopped us and asked if she could pet him. Well, she proceeded to not only pet him but hug him too! He hugged her right back and licked her face. She explained how she had been having the worst day and needed that doggy hug so badly. She then walked me around the store, helping me get everything on my list - the 5 star treatment - stopping to love on neiko every 5 mins or so. Finally when my car was all loaded up she gave him one last hug, said thank you and that we made her whole day. I was so proud of him. That is what it is all about.

Abbie is my baby. She is my cuddler and always seems to know when I need to snuggle. She loves people and makes everyone smile with her wiggles and kisses.

Lily is just so innocent. She wants to please me so badly and wears her emotions on her sleeve. She's so expressive and when I call her she flies from where ever she is to get to me. I love taking her shopping. She turns in to a totally different dog. Perfectly behaved, total "I'm working with mom" mode.

And of course my heart melts at the way they treat each other. They can be so sweet to one another its amazing.

There's a million other reasons. These are just a few :)

How big is he, now?

He is 128 lb and like 4 feet long but he thinks sometimes he is a chihuahua and wants to cuddle like one

I totally understand that. Man, at that weight, he could double for wolves in a movie. Have you thought of getting him an agent?

 I love it when Ari curls up at my feet, head facing me and lets out a big, contented sigh and snuggles in for a nap. I love it also when she attacks me with kisses, when she knows I've had a rough day and need some flat coat lovin' and a good laugh.

Kenya - she works harder to please than anything else (toys, food, etc).  All she wants is a "good girl!"

Coke - he is my heart dog and is so gentle and affectionate.  DH carries him around like a baby and he carefully climbs into our laps.

Nikon - he does not hold still long enough to be physically affectionate but I love that he loves to be with me.  All he wants is for me to play with him.  He knows how to take his tugs and put my end in my hand.  I've never had to work to hold his attention or keep him motivated.  He could be chewing on the most delicious raw bone ever but if I make a move towards his ball all he wants is to work and play as a team.

Jewel- Since we got her when my son was a baby she's been his best friend.An only child needs someone to hang with and she's been filling the role for 12 years.

Noel- She's a cuddler extrordinare.

Turbo- He's not big on affection but he does bring me gifts.....of the rodent variety.....covered in spit

 pets are really people's best friends and sometimes they are much better than humans

this loyal dog stayed with owner after he went missing and it is rare to find loyalty like that

I think the most heart warming things my dogs do is to tollerate my 19 month old child.  It reminds me everyday how wonderful they all are. Even my lab, Hershey, who as much as I don't want to admit it is on her last leg, will let my daughter lay next to her on the floor and cuddle.  My daughter is always with one of the dogs.  It makes me so very proud of them because I'm sure they have to get annoyed at this little person always being in their faces.

I think it would be neat if this thread became a sticky. Maybe not necessary, I know, but it's such a good thread that it would be easier to find with the permanent status a sticky gets.

 Simba will give the guinea pigs kisses through the cage, and one actually kisses him back. So cute.

 Also the fact that I know he trusts me and doesn't go over to something unfamiliar accept with me. 

He also loves to learn new things, the excitement in his eyes is so adorable. When he learns it, we're both excited.
