Our dog Lakota Sioux normally just keeps to herself. She absolutely loves the other dog but hardly hangs around us. Whenever she is scared, she does this thing where she zooms up to me and jumps right in my lap and I would pet her/comfort her.
But today, all of a sudden she did the same exact thing but only this time she wasn't shivering or anything like that. She just simply wanted to spend some time with me. Before I knew it, she was kissing me and gently rubbing her head up against me with her tail wagging a mile a minute. Considering that is so completely out of character for her, I thought at first she may be sick but no, she was just as happy and energetic as always. I was shocked but in the best way possible. I've never seen Lakota do anything like that before. That was the sweetest thing and it really warmed my heart that she chose my lap to sit in. Maybe we have a closer bond than I had originally thought.
