That's funny...I think it IS a boy thing...maybe it's because guys think that all dogs are rough and tumble, no matter what size they are?
Andy is always chasing Emma and Milli around the house, and playing with their toys with them too! He also encourages them to "hunt" bunnies and birds in the yard

I always ask him what he's going to do when they actually GET one, but he never quite has an answer...
I actually do the "blow on the face thing", but I do it when Emma has her back to me-I blow on the back of her ears, and she turns around and gives me a LOOK like you wouldn't believe. I do this just a couple times, and then it's the LOOK that could kill, so I laugh and stop, and usually give her a treat since I feel bad for disrupting the princess!
