Buddy boy will give me puppy kisses. And i don't mean slurp slurp "love ya dad" I mean like a full on face bath. someone get me a towel, I'm dripping. we're talkin' 2, 3, 10 minutes of slurp slurp slurp. he'll cover my entire face, neck, cheeks, chin, eyes, forehead. he goes a while, makes himself comfy, lays down, shifts his weight, settles in for the long haul, puts one paw up on my shoulder (stay here, dad, don't move), and goes to town. sometimes he gets a bit too into it and pulls my beard hairs with his front teeth. He's never done this to anyone else, but does this to me all the time when we're laying down.
So... besides the idea that i have left-over dinner in my beard... what does this behavior mean?
(I don't mind it really, and the wife thinks it's absolutely hilarious. She's training him to do it on command now when she points to my face and says "buddy, you missed a spot"... so no need for pointers on making it stop... I'm just curious)
Ideas?
It really is something. we should get video sometime...
