31. What Strange Habits does Your Dog Have? Sysco

Question: 31. What Strange Habits does Your Dog Have? Sysco

Answer: "My dog, a Pomeranian, eats Old Roy Rounds and will eat nothing else.

She gets a round out of her bowl and brings it in the living room where she drops it at her feet and looks everyone in the room directly in the eye, as if daring anyone to take it away from her.

Then, she lays down with it between her paws and throws it up in the air, first to the left then to the right, straight up, repeats it, rolls it about 3 feet with her nose, lays down on her side and turns in a circle pushing it with her nose as if it were alive and gets up to chases it as it moves. After all this, she eats it.

She repeats the exact same process every time."[br ~ Darlene

"My dog Sysco, likes to wake you up in the morning at 5:30, if he is in your room (we all sleep with the door closed). To do this he first puts on his cutest face and licks you. If you don't get up, he'll then repeatedly wack his paw on the edge of the bed. If you still don't get up he pulls off your blanket. So, one morning Sysco (at 6:30) wanders in to my room (I had the door open that night)after waking up the others. He starts licking my face, so I turn around. Problem fixed, right? Nope. I had just started dreaming again when suddenly I feel a cold wet nose on my back. I screamed in surprise. i turned and looked at Sysco, who was now wagging his tail, and saw my body pillow on the floor right next to him."
