Does your doodle lean on you?

[Louise and Toby]

I'm just curious to see if any other doodles do this. Toby will come up, stand across the front of us and lean on us. It seems to be an affection thing so we call it "lean love"!

OMG! Whenever Scooby says hello, he leans right into the greeter! He's so big, you have to be careful you don't lose your balance.

and really i much rather use something safe then something that is known as a neurotoxin and place it topically on a pet. Especially since we have children. Those topicals when we pet our critters then get on our hands, can absorb in our skin or even worse hand into babies mouth. So where do you think that chemical then resides?

Both Gus and Lilly do occassionally. Gus likes to do it when your sitting on the couch. He'll get up and lean back into you.

Penny is the biggest leaner of all time! If she really loves you, she'll lean so much that if you move your leg, she falls over! LOL!! We love it.

[Carole (*Koda*Monty*Bindi)]

LOL!!! Gaston-Cramer does this ALL THE TIME! It's hysterical when he does it to our little Bindi (a very tiny maltese). He'll lean on her and she'll basically disappear under him and he'll look at you as if to say "what Maltese? I don't see a Maltese????"

I love the term "lean love"!

[Leslie, Dexter & Kirby]

Both our doodles are big leaners :) I think of it as a sign of affection too, but who knows how they think :)

[Cam & Oski]

Oski is such a leaner! He weighs 79lbs & nearly knocks me over half the time. The more you pet him, the more weight he leans onto you, LOL

[2hl9mp3c2fuam]

Yes! They both do when I am drying my hair...hard sometimes to not fall over!! LOL!

[Sue, Murphy and Bella ()*o*()]

This is funny cus the first dog I ever met that did this is my son;s choc. lab. All 80pds of him. It is his show of affection and submission. Maybe it;s the retriever side of the doodle?

Yes, my Bella Daisy is a leaner ! I guess with all of the replies, it must be a doodle trait : )
Also, when she stops leaning, she almost always sits on my feet LOL
