This is how Dahlia gets attention...or tells us she wants to go out. She comes over and puts a paw on us. Or if we're sitting next to her, well, we get this pic.
kimbo likes to put a paw on our faces (we're trying to break him of that habit, because he's given me a couple fat lips) for some reason while he's getting pets.
my childhood dog was a very beautiful well-behaved chow. if he wanted out, he'd go sit by the door--just sit--until someone noticed and let him out, samesies if he wanted back in.
kimbo's a bit more ridiculous. if we're not in the room where we can let him outside and he needs to go out, he zoomies in to find us and does a little "follow me" dance and then runs to the door and sits and waits. if we don't follow immediately he returns and does the dance again. once i fell asleep on the couch and he put his nose in my face to wake me up and then ran to the door. lots of times i'll ask him if he wants to go outside to go potty and he'll do a little spinny dance and then sit and stare at me intently. it's precious.

kimbo and dahlia would be such good friends.
