Penny, I agree it's hard to give them hugs when you have their butt. Silly dogs..
Our company just thought it was so odd, they had never seen anything like that before. I had no explanation since it's was a normal thing for me.
Bubba does the couch and chair sitting too. He has his own couch in the rec-room that's his. Instead of laying on it which would probably be more comfortable, he prefers to have his front feet on the floor and his butt on the couch.
He's also slid the kitchen chairs across the floor trying to sit on them. It's hilarious to watch him walk backwards pushing the chair until it's against the wall and then sit down on it.
I need to get that on video and upload it to YouTube.
My sister in law also taught him "Kiss my nose". Lola is learning this one too now.
But she will tell Bubba come here so I can kiss your nose. He will put his nose right against her lips so she can kiss it. LOL Imagine our guests surprise when Bubba gets right in there face and presses his nose against their mouth. LMAO. They look at me all confused.. "Oh he just wants you to kiss his nose"
I will never be without a Saint now. They have so many odd, cute little quirks.
