Cobbing! Ever heard of it? I think it's a super adorable canine behaviour.
If you have never had a dog with this behaviour as an adult (all baby dogs do it), you are missing out on one of the weirdest, bonding moments you will ever share with your furlegged.
Imagine your dog is eating you like the gentlest corn on the cob. Or that they are old-timey typewriting down your arm but with their face knives. On your body.
Sold yet?! 😆
Nyx likes to do this. And I have just learnt that another friend at daycare loves to do this. Its also been coined "the pibble nibble" as pibbles often take the behaviour into adulthood. I will take their affection and/or their ability to self soothe however they want to express it! And it helps that they're super duper-eat-up-their-faces-cute.
Often, favourite places to do this are commonly directed towards the back of the forearm or lower back. But wait.
Just imagine for a moment what an extraordinarily ticklish person looks like as this is occurring. The look of adoration in their eyes, tears from laughing too hard rolling down their cheeks, all while flipping around like a fish, as a dog is doing this to them.
I'm surprised I even try to act like a regular adult out in public anymore thinking regular adult people thoughts. 😆
Have any of you ever had a dog that did this?

I forgot to post this video of Ivy just being...well Ivy (and a cameo by Journey)
* There are not normally jelly beans on the floor so obviously it was treated as a formidable object of prey.
Whistle Recall can completely take the place of "Come" or you can use both interchangeably. A whistle is used in many dog sports because it is consistent and can be heard over a long distance compared to your voice.

Journey has got some mad work ethic. Here he is attempting to give Rocky the what for. And then there's that damn rookie, Pip, following him again..lol.

"Wha?wha? I was just resting my eyes!"
(Yes, I'm a little obsessed with the slo-mo feature lately!)
