You make me smile (or laugh), the sweet, funny, loving things my dogs do on a daily basis that brings a smile to my face, or a laugh to my lips.
As I indicated in Tuesday’s post (If It Were Any Closer) some of the funniest things that happen with my dogs happen when I don’t have a camera handy.
That was the case last Sunday. Most mornings at some point, Delilah gets up and goes to snuggle with Daddy. But she’s fickle that one, because nine out of ten times, she heads back to me. (Probably because the Daddy moved which didn’t sit well with her.)
Last Sunday morning I felt her get up, but I knew it was sleep in Sunday and Hubby would get up with her, so I threw the covers over my head and dozed off.
I felt Delilah jump back up on the bed and lie down next to me. Whatevs, I know Hubs will be in shortly to snag her. Then I felt her ‘throw’ herself against me, which was odd, but dude, it was sleep in day and so I ignored her.
Then I felt her sort of sit up and look at me, so I peeked my head out from under the covers….
And….
It wasn’t Delilah after all, it was this guy!
The funny thing was, I can usually tell the difference between each one of them getting on the bed, but in this case I didn’t.
All I know is Sampson made me smile with his Sunday morning antics.
How do your dogs let you know they want to snuggle?
Cupcake says
When any space sneaks in between Mom and me, I stand up in the bed next to her head and stare at her till she wakes up and opens a place in the covers for me to slide under and resume my position against her. If I can’t feel her heartbeat, I am too far away. When she says the word, “Get offa me, weirdo!” Then I know I’m in the perfect spot.
Love and licks,
Cupcake

What a sweet surprise! We are all very similar, yet different and 99% of the time Mom can tell the difference between us without looking. Happy snuggling!
Sheena says
Mo sneaks up to my pillow and snuggles up against my head. Depending which way I am facing sometimes his head rests upon my head, his chest against my face, and his feet are snuggled underneath my chin. I’d prefer to be facing the opposite direction!
Hailey and Zaphod says
Similar things have happened to me. I have been sure it was one dog in the bed and it was the other!

Sunday morning snuggles are the best! I can usually tell who jumps up on the bed next to me too. Cricket always goes behind my legs, and Sheba doesn’t look for snuggles too often. It’s usually Luke if someone piles themself behind my back! Once he knows I’m awake he rolls right onto his back looking for a tummy rub. 🙂

You get to sleep in on Sunday?? I have to get up an hour earlier than the work week to get in a quick walk before church. It figures B feels most like snuggling and sleeping in on Sunday which makes it challenging to get up. And B doesn’t care if I want to snuggle or not. She will press herself as close to me as she can get. Sometimes she will press her nose into my neck and I will feel her nose juice drip down my neck. Makes me giggle every time.

any advice on questions for our vet about joint supplements that might help with her joints. can’t stop the aging process but want to help in any way we can.

Snuggles by any fur-iend means a big smile, on our face and in our hearts. Happy Sunday.

They all like to pose three inches from my nose until I open my eyes to the horror that is before me.
2 Brown Dawgs says
LOL brown dawgs are not big snugglers so I usually don’t have to worry about them getting on the bed. Oh they don’t mind waking you up, but not by getting on the bed.
Callie, Shadow, and Ducky's Mom says
Awwww, sweet boy! I love that face!!
Shadow has never been a true snuggler, but she will lean in against my leg and tilt her head up slightly so I can reach her neck and upper chest. And will occasionally let me hug her briefly. But since Callie went to Heaven, she’s become more of a Velcro dog than ever. And then there’s Ducky. Oh, Ducky! She LOVES to snuggle with Mommy and Daddy. I guess it’s her way of saying thank you for getting her out of the shelter and giving her a loving home. She just jumps into our laps – oof! – and starts with those irresistible puppy kisses. We do occasionally tell her “not now” but she has us both wrapped around her little paw. 🙂
Julie says
Sampson wanted you to get up and PLAY!!
Jen says
Awwww! Yay Sampson!
When Leroy wants to snuggle he just jumps on top of me. When Sherman wants to snuggle he rolls over for belly rubs 🙂
