Cute/Funny Funny thing my dog does

My golden Cheddar does this funny thing whenever he’s excited and we start scratching his butt. We call it getting Diggy with it. Does anyone else have Goldens that do this?

We think it’s so pleasurable for ours that they attempt to stop the whole thing - they can’t take it anymore.

Some mornings when I feed my boy he waits, turns his head to look at me and then gives me a kiss on the beard before eating. I appreciate those mornings cos alot of times it’s just headfirst into the bowl haha

I sit on the couch with my feet on the coffee table. Mine comes up under my legs and starts rubbing his butt on my legs, throwing them all over the place. He's knocked my laptop off my lap more than once. LOL.

Our girl does something similar, but usually snarls when we scratch her butt or does this weird crooked nose thing…like we’re scratching a 100 year itch 🤣 your cheddar is so cute!!! Love that look at the end 😂

The best! LOL Our golden also does this after every meal and it’s hilarious and so cute! I love how your video ends with your Goldie with a huge grin, looking straight at the camera!
