None of my dogs would have been down with that, and I doubt any of my cats would be.

They would take me outside and wait for ages for something to happen. Then they’d leave me alone for a couple of minutes and it was like I’d exploded! They even asked the vet if there was something wrong with me, but he said it was nothing to worry about – it was just that my digestive tract was working at its peak to help me grow so fast. 😀

When we first got her, she’d had such a hard life that she was scared of everyone. We encouraged everyone to love on her and it backfired. Now she loves everyone and thinks everyone wants her fluffy feet on them. We just don’t have the heart to stop her. She is good in public, thankfully, but there are some places where she just can’t help herself – like home, or the agility field.

Monty, Harlow, and Ramble

And I will encourage her naughtiness. 🙁

Who knows, maybe some day she will learn to potty on board.

Who wouldn’t love a dog who absolutely won’t pee in the house? Only people living on a boat! 🙂
Having a dog who is reactive to strangers isn’t as bad for an introvert like me than it might be for someone far more social. But there are times I could do without all the work and drama when we do have people over our house!
Honey must definitely have Santa scratching his head, but we feel pretty sure he’ll land on the “nice” side.

It’s suppose to be naughty, but after so many years of not being able to train Chance and Blaze to quit it, I learn to accept it. Now they are part of my housekeeping army.

At least two out of four dogs have a job to do and do a good job at it.

The other two, well, they are lucky they are cute.

p.s. Honey can jump on me any day. I love it!

Angel K was the same way about people, every single one of them. As she walked on leash, she’d try to catch the eyes of people on the street. If they looked at her, the full body wiggle started along with the monkey noises. If the person dared truly approach, I think that she rivaled Honey in her enthusiasm. I agree – it is the nicest kind of naughty!

I don’t envy your doggy rest stop situation. You are saints, and so is Honey!

Oh my. I would not do well in your world. 😉

Barley is very similar with greeting people. She’ll stay in her sit–with her front legs dancing a bit–but the second somebody touches her, she is all over them (thankfully, she doesn’t jump, but she will crawl in laps, lean on legs, and insist that someone be touching her at all times). Thanks for joining the hop!

He has the same nice-yet-naughty approach to housetraining. Even if there is a blizzard outside or it’s pouring rain (conditions in which he hesitates to venture out to do his business), he won’t go on a pee pad or one of those fake grass “indoor potties.” He even turns up his nose at the indoor pet relief areas at airports. Luckily he is able to “hold it” for long periods of time if necessary.
