Evening thread?

Re: Evening thread?

  • I hate when FI's face is prickly, which is half the time. I wish he'd shave everyday for me. He's been rambling about random crap since I got here, so I'm kinda tuning out, haha.

  • Ugh Angel I hate stubble too. Prickly hair is painful.

  • Haha Musu - my boxer is like that. The funny thing is that she doesn't move when you move like a lot of dogs tend to do. If she's sleeping you could actually push her to the other side of the bed and she won't really move. But when she wakes up she'll snuggle up to you again.
  • Yeah exactly, Poke! That is how Tory is too. You can move her like a little ragdoll into whatever position you want her in, lol.

    </div><div>Chef starts off by our legs, then between 5 and 6:30am he moves to our heads. Like, sleeps on top of one of our heads/face.    If you don't know, bulldogs snore.  It's really loud when it's directly in your ear.</div><div>

    What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated. 
  • Haha I bet, Lynda! I think it is because of their nose structure right? Since they have smooshed faces or something, it makes them more prone to snoring.

    Westley doesn't sleep with us, but the cat does. He purrs so freaking loud when he is sleeping and it drives me crazy.

    </div><div>Yeah, their squished faces make them prone to snoring.  He snores pretty loud sometimes.  We haven't figured out why he moves to our heads in the morning, but it's like clock-work.    He doesn't try to do that during the day or anything. </div>

  • I know Bay - it's so freaking cute! My cousin is so proud of them. She and her H make good doggy parents. 
  • I really want a husky puppy, but I need to do research about their temperaments first.

    <div>My dogs actually sleep in the crate. The boxer slept with me when she was younger but when we got our other dog we put them both in the crate together. </div><div>
    </div><div>My mom sleeps with two cats in the room. One sleeps on the dresser and the other sleeps on moms chest when she can get away with it - or sometimes on the pillow directly above her head.</div>

    <div>See Chef D looks mad or something.  He does not stick out his tongue like other bullies.  I wish he did sometimes, but I think the ones who always have the tongues out drool more. </div>

    Yeah, Westley sleeps in a crate. H moves around too much in his sleep, and I'm afraid he would squish him because he is so tiny.

  • Huskies are great dogs, I'm pretty sure. They are soooo cute too. there are different breeds of husky (it is similar to how there are different breeds of retrievers or hounds)... so their temperament might vary too. I know they are great escape artists so you need to have a good fence for them.

  • Angel, one of my friends owns a husky mix, and she is the sweetest dog ever.  Very energetic, sheds like mad -- but the sweetest dog in the world.

    <div>Huskies are ADORABLE. I'd love a Greyhound but there is no way I'll have the necessary room in England to have one. A dog like that needs plenty of space and exercise. But they're sooo pretty - and so many of them need homes because of the races. </div>
  • I think the most common Husky breed in the US is the Siberian husky though. Then there are Malamutes and Akitas that look very similar.

  • We'd probably have an invisible fence. That's what we have for the dogs now and we love it.

    [QUOTE]George (my roommate's cat) likes to sleep on my head in the morning and purr loudly in my ear.  Barney sleeps on the floor next to my parents bed.  My mom read in dog books that that is the best place for t<strong>he to sleep as it shows them that they aren't alpha, and gives them a job (to protect you).</strong>

  • Chrissy - I would love to have a dog sleep on the floor next to the bed - and that might be an option for FI and I in the future. But I'm afraid my parents dogs are way too spoiled for that. They'd keep us up all night trying to get on the bed and snuggle.

    Then again, any dog I get will be a snuggler too - so maybe it won't happen lol.

  • My Belgian sheepdog is mostly a one person dog. For him, it's actually 2 people, my mom and my sister's boyfriend, which is kinda random.
