Happy Hump day everyone!  I hope your week is going well so far!  I'm just hanging in there.

I was thinking that none of my dogs are considered cuddlers at least to me.  Emmy likes to have belly rubs but she doesn't snuggle with me.  Spencer and Buzz like to get be petted etc. but again they won't cuddle with me.  I think of cuddling more with small dogs than big dogs.

So the Question of the Week is - Do your dogs cuddle?

No, definitely no cuddling of the greyhounds.  I hug their heads, but it's always my idea.  They don't like to touch each other either and a snarl-fest always ensues if they accidently do.  Sometimes Jester will lie down with his head on my leg.  That's about it.

My Australian Cattle Dog and English Springer were the best cuddlers ever.   The bigger guys seem to have trouble getting close without hurting you.

Jess would sit and be cuddled 24/7 if we let her. She quickly starts whining any time you stop petting her if you indulge her though so it just doesn't happen. Every now and then she sits in my husbands chair with him but never for long because she just gets too pushy. She has an odd mix of wanting to be the dominant one and being very anxious about everything so we have to be really careful that she doesn't think she's got any control or her anxiety issues get worse really quickly.

Yeah Greyhounds aren't super cuddly - LOL!  And yes mine snark at each other too if they touch each other.  Big eye roll here!

That's too bad about Jess.  It's like she can't be satisfied either with or without attention.
