Growing up, we had Snickers. She was a Goldie-something, and hands down one of the best dogs ever.
(She had coloration similar to a Rottweiler- back body, with brown eyebrows and brown belly, but otherwise had hair and body conformation like a typical Goldie.)
In any case; when she was young, she loved to attack nature docs on the TV. Or any animal on the TV, to the extent that you could see scratched on the glass after it was turned off. (The scratches were likely in a laminate layer or something. But they were there and they were permanent.)
Aww, what an adorable nuisance! 😄🥰
So I have a theory that defines “best dog” as being related to proximity. Both, physical, literal proximity and more figurative terms.
All Snickers wanted, was to be with you. Touching was best. Not much, mind. She’d settle for sitting against your leg, or a head against your knee, maybe a hand scratching the ears.
Was one of the best dogs of all time. Super chill.
Aww, she sounds precious! And I agree with your theory 100% 🥰
