My 8-yr old son also wanted to post why he loves Levi:

"I love Levi because he's so funny, he gives us hugs, and he plays crazy with me. Also because he is so happy to see me when I come home from school everyday."

We have two lads, Bear and Angel. When we go though a car wash, as we come out, they shake off, as if they were wet.

They are children who never leave home

I love my GSD because her amazing ability to love, forgive, learn, negotiate and tolerate of me who has no experience in handling a dog before and has a full time job.

And are they just not the goofiest? They make us laugh so hard with their cute ways!

They're always expecting me to rub their bellies and share my food and bed ! I have to follow them around with plastic bags picking up their 'business' ! Then if I don't take them out for their daily ride/walk, I have 'heck' to pay !!!

DARN DAWGS !!! They're RUINING my life !

Why do you love your dog?

I have a 7 year old pug...Gator.

What has he/she done to enriched your life?
I got Gator when he was 5 or 6 weeks old. As a puppy I carried him around in my coat pocket. He gives me unconditional love. He can tell if I am upset about something and snuggles up close. He hates it if I am crying and will jump in my lap and lick away my tears. I can not imagine my life without him. Every morning when I wake up there he is snuggled as close to my body as he can get, it's such a warm, wonderful feeling knowing he is there. And hearing his snores is really a comfort.

What is he/she most interesting characteristic?
OMG. What isn't interesting about a pug. Gator will jump on the bed, put his head down and start "digging" in the covers until he can get his head under them, then he burrows down under the covers. He will also do this "digging" then flip over on his back and want his belly rubbed. If you stopped, he will start whining or woof for you to start rubbing again.

What is the funniest thing that he/she does? I don't know if it is the funniest thing but it sure is the most embarrassing! We had a huge party with about 300 people and there was Gator carrying around his stuffed pig.(aka his girlfriend). I heard a female say. "Oh look, isn't that cute he has a pig." I was horrified and thought please don't grab the pig. About that time I heard. "OMG, he's humping the pig." I heard lots of laughter and a man's voice say. "Give me the pig." I was really embarrassed. Most of our friends now call him "Pig Humper" and not Gator!
He also likes to watch tv. We were watching a hunting video and he saw a deer on the screen and started barking and ran up to the tv and tried to get the deer.
He can be hilarious!
