One time Satch didn't feel well, I massaged his neck and back, a deep tissue rub. Now, at least twice a day, he'll back up to my chair for his rub down. He just about melts afterward. I know he's spoiled, but who cares?

Hi it's me again been following along. As for your question on snuggling.
Mine love to snuggle. My Buddy will put front feet on lap when I sit down
and put his front arms around my neck. He loves to be loved on. As far as
sleeping with you that s their favorite place if I am in there to. If I an
sitting in my recliner he will get on my lap like my little ones do. They
like to play games with my recliner when I get up one will get in it as to
say mine now. They are a ball. And oh boy do they ever snore. But that's
all I can say that is bad about them and its not really bad. I am so
excited for you to get your new family member. I am all for the adoption
idea there are to many dogs out there that need furever homes. Whether it
but puppy or more mature they are all great dogs. Or as I call them my 4
legged babies. Nice to have you in the group.
