    He jumps on the loveseat and sticks his butt in the air and his head on the cushion, (often under a throw pillow if its there) and waits till I scritch his butt.
    Shelties have a way of making you smile-even if you don't feel like it.

    Teddy scratches his head on the carpet while walking with his butt in the air.

    Umm Angus is a petting demand. The boy LOVES to get petted. Though as to laughs, Spitfire grumbles when he is really liking the pets.

    Awwww Benny! Way to make it obvious! :ROFLMAO: Meadow pokes me with her nose. Faith will rub up against me or come in between my legs. Eli will also nose poke.

    Now that's inventive. I will tell Benny in case he wants to expand his routine.

    Fillion is kinda like Spitfire. He doesn't like cuddles and pets generally. Although he does like people. Lately he's started making these low grumbling sounds as well. I thought the sounds were funny too.

    Kismet does that too, but she doesn't stay still enough for a pat, she just loves shoving her butt in the air and a head under the pillow. And she makes ra ra ra sounds.

    Awww that’s too cute!
    Finnie loves to walk between my legs while I scratch both sides of his tummy and hind legs and he moves behind me. He then repeats over and over and over again until I say enough! It’s hard for me to stop because he makes this groaning whine that causes me to erupt with laughter as I do it:ROFLMAO:
    He tries to do it with others as well but they often aren’t familiar with it and think he’s just acting weird lol!
    What would we do without our silly quirky Shelties!

    Benson is so cute!!! Thanks for starting my day with a smile!

    Brodie does this in the morning if I take them to the yard to do their business instead of going for a walk right away. Deacon is all business but Brodie can't do anything until he getting his 'morning scritches' - he groans and moans and continues to circle through my legs until I say enough. It's okay in most seasons, but winter time I'm not the biggest fan of it. :)
