Gemma Blue-nosed Pitbull Gemma loves to cuddle with her daddy-she likes to sleep under his legs when he’s resting on the couch. One day they were both laying there covered with a blanket that happened to have a hole in it. Since she’s a hardcore snuggler, Gemma was completely under the blanket with the exception of her nose, which was poking out of the small hole. She heard a noise outside and immediately woke up and tried running to the window...through the blanket hole. For several minutes she wiggled her snout until the hole had gotten big enough to fit her whole head through (the noise had subsequently been forgotten); soon she was wearing the blanket and desperate to escape it. I tried to get it off her head, but she was so frantic that she ended up running and tripping all over the apartment for about ten minutes before I was able to get it off of her. Once free, she immediately began poking her nose at the hole in the blanket again...some pups never learn. Submitted by megkrueger

Comet Golden Retriever-German Shepherd Mix Comet is a rescue dog who has been with us for the past six years.

We’re lucky to have her in our lives. Submitted by kimbarry95
