Is yours the same?

Our Toby is 2 years old, and always seems to be happy and smiling. He starts out the day at 5:30 a.m. wagging his tail and kissing. He is happy as he runs down the hallway to wake hubby before I go to work. Ecstatic when I get home from work and plays all night until he heads down to the bedroom around 10. I have never seem him grumpy, a bit haughty at times maybe, but never in a bad mood. Is this normal for these little guys, or are we incredibly lucky?

I think you are lucky! Not to say that Tucker isn't mosty happy or that I don't love him with all my being, but boy does he have his tantrums!

I would say that Boo is nearly always happy, however, sense Annie left us in March and first Gracie then Yogi came to live with us, I've noticed he has some moody days. The last few days he's seemed down, even pouted on Sunday and wouldn't come sit with either myself of DH. So last night he and I went on a 'date'. I brushed his hair, put on his harness and took just him to Petsmart. We walked up and down every aisle, stopping and sniffing at anything he wanted to. Meet a few other dogs there, bought a bag of treats and ate some in the store! lol Must have spent 50 minuets there. Stopped at Wendy's on the way home for a cheeseburger. After all whats a date without dinner out, right. He was oh so much happier when we got home. I'm going to start doing that more often with him.

Of course, I was in the dog house with Gracie for leaving her at home, but she'll quickly forgive me...I bought her the most adorable pink with brown trim dressy winter coat. She looks fabulous in it!!

I thought I was the only one who tried to give my dogs 1 on 1 time by taking them on dates . I usually do it on the days they have grooming appts, after grooming I take them to the pet store, and to WENDY'S for a forbidden cheeseburger (they get the $1 one, and they only eat the meat and cheese). I usually take Cooper to the park, too, since he is the only one who really LOVES outdoors

Well we may be the only 2 that do it, but that's only because no one else has seen what fun it is. I find taking 2 or more out by myself is just too challenging unless it's just for walkies. Boo was so much happier last night, you could see it in his face. I'm fairly sure my DH thought I'd lost my mind, but I don't care. Boo has been sooooo good with the intrusion of these 2 puppies into his house and so soon after he lost his best friend Annie I just had to do something to help put that smile back on his face. We'll be doing it much more often, you can count on that!

My boys are always happy too! They are 3 and I swear have never had a bad day. My fletcher is scared of the dishwasher so for an hour once a week he is a SUPER snuggle bug with me. He attaches himself to my leg and does not leave my side or lap while its running, when its done hes back to his normal playful happy self.

Joshua loves everybody. He is always happy, and he greets everybody in the morning. He is a very social and outgoing dog.

Except for a one minute temper tantrum at the start of crate training I've never seen my Yorkie have a cranky moment either. I thought this was normal.

My baby is happy all the time for the most part.

Everynow and then he wines cause he wants something, but I don't normally put up with that....LOL
