Your doodle's strange routines

[J and Riley (and Luna)]

Does your doodle have any odd routines that you find entertaining (or annoying)?

 

Share them!  I would love to hear about how other peoples' little creatures of habit go about their day.  Photo evidence is a plus!

 

Here are a few of Luna's:

 

- Before she goes to sleep in her own bed, she demands some cuddle time up on her bed.  She can't get up there herself, so she stands on her hind legs and paws at the covers until the skyhook (tall 2-legged dog) takes her up.

- She MUST go outside before her morning meal, but doesn't do anything.  She just stands on the deck for 5 seconds and comes back in.  (2 months and 8 months, same spot)

- Before coming all the way down the stairs, she ALWAYS sits in this spot and has to be tempted down further with the promise of play, food or interesting kitchen noises:  (4 months and 8 months.. same spot and yes - she always sits like that)

Myla does this and then she lays on them so Chloe can't have any-if Chloe does, she'll take it right out of her mouth and chew on that one!

[J and Riley (and Luna)]

Luna does that too! If you sit cross-legged on the floor, she has to insert herself in your lap.  It worked when she was 10 pounds, not as much at 35 pounds...

wow

[Deanna & Desi & Cori]

All day long, Sedona independently goes into the back courtyard to take care of business.  However, once we all sit down for a little television time, the staring game begins.  She'll sit in front of my husband, staring at him so intently she can't be ignored.  He'll take her to the side yard for a potty break.  Within seconds of being back in the house, the staring begins again.  Now the guessing game begins.  What does she want this time?  Another trip outside to poop?  Crunchies (i.e., a bit of her kibble)? A treat because she thinks she's done something treat-worthy?  The staring and guessing goes on for up to an hour before she finally settles down!

[Camilla and Darwin]

Those are adorable! She is such a funny cute dog. The only one I can think of is that Darwin does this ostrich routine, when he gets really excited. He gets so hyped up that it's just too much, then immediately buries his head in the couch cushions, your laps, etc. Then he just sits there with his head buried and his bum in the air, wagging his tail.

love this!

Darwin is so adorable. He seems like such a lovable big lug!

[J and Riley (and Luna)]

Hahaha!  That's so cute.  He can't stand the excitement, so he removes himself from the situation, but his tail is still going ;)

LOL!

[Denise & Hunter!!!]

LOL That is so funny!  Hunter has a few odd habits - first whenever we come home and greet her I always let her outside, she stands on her hind legs so I can scratch her head before she goes out the sliding door - mind you were are standing in front of the door - she won't just go out the sliding door she has to make a slow lap and walk around the kitchen through the living room and dining room and will then go straight out the door.

 

Also, whenever anyone comes to our house she immediately gets a bone or a toy to show them, whether they like it or not!  If they sit I have to warn them she may drop the big bone in their lap :-)

[Bonnie and Kona]

The most prevalent behavior at our house is that both dogs HAVE to have a toy in their mouths when they greet us. They are obsessive about it. Cute photos of Luna.

[Jodi and Stella]

I had a wonderful Lab that did that and he would snort as her paraded around with his toy
