Hello, I'm a newbie and may need to be shown the ropes. I have an idea and I'm looking for comments, responses, thoughts and suggestions.

I have a dog named Gizmo and my husband and I love him to pieces. We believe him to be the smartest, funniest and of course cutest dog there is. After attending puppy class at petsmart and witnessing dogs get engaged (they had rings), I realized everyone feels this way. I have an idea about giving back to the animal rescue site and petfinder. I'm looking for the most unique (silliest, cutest, strangest, most heartwarminging) thing your dog does. If you have a photo of them in action that's great, if this characteristic can't be captured then tell me about it.

If you like my idea and want to know more contact me.
Thanks so much! Oh and spread the word.

Hello Everyone,
My Dog Gizmo is a 10mth old Shih Tzu he's adorable and has the greatest personality. Gizmo loves to have his back scratched (and thinks he knows best) so much that he will steal his brush and drop it in the center of the floor and roll over the bristles. Then he'll get up and rearrange the brush so it's hitting a better spot and roll over it again.
Usually in the process the brush will flip over on to it's back side several times, which he finds very frustrating. He rearranges and then lets out little grunting noises as he rolls over the bristles to show how good it feels. Eventually he realizes that he's not effective enough and the percentage of brush flips isn't in his favor, he'll pick up his brush and drag it over to my feet and drop it. He then looks up with his pleading eyes and seems to say "Mommy, I give up, brush me please!?!"

I'll have to include a pic of this soon. The ones attached to previous message are baby pics, but he still looks the same, still short, just a little longer, shih tzu style. (Oh and my husband, previously not a dog lover, reformed by Gizmo

)

Thank you for the heads up. I appreciate it. I didn't mean to break any rules, just trying to share my idea. I'll try and figure out how to edit that part out. Thanks again.
