I love that Penny represents a life devoted to the study of being cute. [

] She has an ever-expanding repertoire of cute behaviours that sometimes get her what she wants. It's hilarious to watch her push the other dogs out of the way when they all want to come in so she can get down to the serious business of charming the pants off us with her cuteness in the hopes that we will let them in. She makes the little 'buff' bark where she lets air explode out the sides of her mouth, then she pins her ears back and wags her little tail, then she paddles on the glass door with her front feet, then she lies down and rests her chin on the doorstep, then she starts all over again. When she met my housemate's dog last year, she was shocked and threatened to discover that he knew cute things she had never seen before! She had to work hard to come up with some even more adorable moves. Her latest one is to walk up behind you and rest her nose between the backs of your knees. She'll just sit there, nose burried between your knees, waiting for you to turn around and give her a pat.
Nearly 11 and she's still coming up with new cute moves. She is a master!
