I think I have the quirkiest of dogs. Cody is very funny and finicky. Here's just a few:
Licks and bathes himself like a cat
If you ask him if he wants puppy chow, he may or not lick his chops
If you ask him if he wants eggs, he will not lick his chops
If you ask him if he wants eggs and cheese, he will lick his chops
Does not play catch or play fetch
Loves to run and chase and be chased
Prefers to run in circles
Likes blonds
If he sleeps on the bed and I move around too much, he lets out a big sigh and jumps off the bed
Eats only when hungry
Copper on the otherhand could be considered, a stereotypical blond if her were a blond
Likes to play dumb
Looks at you with those dark brown fathomless eyes, yes mom??? while secreting plotting
While being scolded, wags his tail so fast that his whole body quivers.
Chews on Cody's legs
Will go anywhere with anyone
Very much a hunting dog
Loves water and mud too much.
Will do anything for food and overeats if allowed
However despite their quirks, I love them both dearly and would be lost without them.

Pet Quirks
While trying to decide what to write for this week’s bIog, I thought I would dazzle everyone with bizarre animal facts. However there were some really disgusting ones so I decided to change to Pet Quirks.
Cody has many and I think would take a 10 page dissertation to go through them all. We all know that I think the world of him. It is important to know that Cody was raised in an apartment in New Jersey. He was almost 6 months old when I got him. I had to have a dog walker take him out twice a day as he was too young to hold it all day. Even though Cody has a yard and can take care of business whenever he wants, he thinks walks are pee and poo breaks.
Cody also does not like anyone who is angry or has any rage. I was awakened one night about 3 AM by Cody barking and growling out the front windows of the apartment in NJ. A guy was mistreating a woman and Cody did not like that. Of course I called the police.
He pushes his food out of his dish and eats it off the ground or floor. Loves it when I change his dog collar. Hates baths. Dislikes wearing any clothing but likes bandanas. He likes his tummy rubbed but not his head. Hates to be combed or brushed although he really has very little fur. Loves puppy massages.
Then there’s Copper. I call him my boob dog as he always puts his paws on my boobs. Loves to cuddle and sleep with me. Chases birds out of the yard, plays fetch and has an oral fixation – loves to have toys in his mouth. Loves to be brushed. His back paws are very sensitive and probably better to leave alone. He’s just a 50-pound lap dog.
But Copper likes to leap before he thinks. Last Friday I had the dogs with me at work. We went to the beach for lunch. The dogs are on harnesses and tied into the bed of the truck. Two surfers walk by and Cody barks and Copper tries to fly to greet them. Unfortunately he is on a leash and falls to the ground. It was very comical! He was a little shook up and but absolutely fine. He’s a sturdy little guy.
So that is just a few of the quirks of my boys. What quirks do your animals have?
