Staffy Greeting.

Does anyone else's dog always have to run and get a shoe or preferably a boot to greet you with when you get home, even when you've just got back from a walk together? The next step is to run the shoe or boot up the garden where it'll be dumped in the mud!Then the whole process is repeated until we stop him!Sometimes we find 4 or 5 damp shoes out there!

Brilliant! Mine just yodels or burps in my face and runs me down the stairs.
edit - he also feels the need to clean himself furiously whilst sitting on my foot. Not so delighted by that one.

I get the Staffy dance... And then some howling followed by some more Staffy dancing and rounded off with a touch of the zoomies if she's feeling energetic

Lol I get the grumble and staffy dance

Katy brings my oh a bone or a toy when he comes home & sits there grumbling with it in her mouth

Oh my god i completely get this & thought it was just us!!! He grunts at the door til we open it, lunges at us both then flies outside & grabs a toy and races back inside with it and chews frantically - almost seeking our approval and attention!

Yup! huge greetings followed by 'oh no, I've forgotten something!', then then rush off to the toy box and select the toy of the moment to present to you. One reason for having the toy box near the front door!

Mia felt the need to howl at me today . Shes doesn't usually but hoewled at me when i walked in the door bless her so funny then she done a half zoomie had to laugh bless her .

i dont get anything lol :/, my other dog my retriever he always brings a toy, but millie sometimes doesnt even bother to get up lol. think i wear her out to much walking in the day and im in and and out all day long picking them both up and dropping them off depending on if they can come on every walk or not, that she doesnt even bother getting up lol...

sasha does exactly the same,trying to get a matching pair of shoes in our house is darn near impossible

I'm glad I'm not the only one with a loopy dog! Why do they do it?

Ha Ha Gordon does the same, who ever takes their shoes off coming home he runs out and grabs one and races round like a looney

Bug too! She runs around in circles for a few minutes, before grabbing a teddy bear and running to her bed with it, giving it a good chew! She "happy growls" at my partner too!
