Tummy-tickle Thursday, Friday, Saturday...

I've instituted a strict rule whereby a tummy tickle must take place every single morning before my human leaves the house. This is for my human's own good - after all, if she can't find five minutes in the morning to tickle her puppy's tummy, then that doesn't bode well for the rest of her day!

Of course, that doesn't mean she must limit herself to one tummy tickle per day. A tummy tickle also takes place every night, upon arriving home from work. And of course, random tummy tickles often occur during the evening.

I've been training my human to tummy-tickle me to sleep, in bed after she turns out the light - and what better way to wake up in the morning, but with a gentle tummy tickle? There are so many opportunities for a puppy to contribute to her human's well-being through the magic of tummy tickles.

Of course, it's important to give your human the right signals, so she knows exactly what to do. Here's my classic "you may tickle me now" pose.


I'm ready for my tummy tickle, Mr DeMille!

Hi Sasha - we were quite overcome by this photo and had to dash out into the snow to cool off a bit - tee-hee!

Good training you're giving your human - a pup must stay firm in the training routine so we admire your daily approach, it's very dedicated of you. We bet your have a really well trained human now - you must be very proud.

That human of yours is a bit slow to learn, isnt' she, keep up the training she will get the idea eventually.
