Smiling?

Does anyone else have a dog that smiles? Reba used to show her teeth whenever she got excited to see us. At first we thought something was wrong with her jaw so we investigated and found nothing, just decided she was a bit strange. But then I started to say "smile" each time she did it. Now she can do it on command, raising her lips, showing her teeth and shaking her booty like a hussy-girl. We laugh and laugh. Then, if she gets scolded and you say "bad", she starts doing it to warm up to you.

I've been trying to get a picture of it, but she doesn't cooperate with the camera very well. I also taught her to roll over, the first time I've ever gotten a dog to do that. I have a video of that. Not sure how to get it on here.

They know the smile works every time you catch them doing something they know they shouldn't be doing

Last night after 45 minutes and 100 digital photos later, I finally captured Reba smiling. Unfortunately it's a side view and she looks like she is growling, but she's not. check it out!!!!

Ha! She looks scary--I'll have to take your word that she's smiling and not growling! :wink:

She's very pretty, by the way...

Very cute!

Bentley says he needs a squid like Reba has for his marine life collection!

Thanks - she's the dog that pictures do not do her justice, mostly because she won't friggin' sit still!!! She has huge beautiful brown eyes. Right now her fur is just growing wild....we call it the "winter coat". You can brush it and 5 minutes later, it is out of control again.
