If I tried to give a dog a foot massage while standing on the other one, I'd probably end up squashing his stomach or something. There was a day I could have, but true to the following of my mother and older sister, I find my balance in my 70's not as steady.

That is just to precious that he knows! I get the going around barefoot in the hose! I do it a lot but I also like socks! When I work in my yard in the summer or the garden I am barefoot! I love Jag's nuances, too! He has you marked, territorially, lol you only control the study and then the cat has you! lol Shelly

You named your doggie the same as my old Business: JAG Printing Equipment.

Yep, I can see ours (officially Son's!) dog do the same: he loves foot massage or actually ANY massage at all would do fine by him..just a big...
suck sock (to go with the foot, of course)!

You know your dog quite well, I see. A lot of interesting observations you have made and relayed to us about dogs.

I know what you mean about giving a dog a foot-massage, it's addictive!
Naut,
My little hairball of a dog loves being rubbed, petted, or lovingly touched by my bare feet, and riding in a car or truck is even BETTER!
Hitler finds my feet to be far less acceptable for petting, as long as I still have my hands. Try petting her with your feet, and you are inviting her to grab onto your foot with those nasty little fishhooks she has in her feet, and bite the offensive, disrespectful, bare foot.
When I stand up, from wherever I have been sitting, Baby will eagerly take my place, because he knows that where I choose to sit, is the best spot to be, in the entire house. When I sit elsewhere, he then covets that spot, because the BEST spot keeps moving, and only I am capable of seeing to where it has gone. Dogs are always running for higher office, and I am certain that he would just love to be the alpha male of my little pack. Dream on Baby.
Guy
