Dozer, while lying down, uses his paws to gather a good amount of blanket between his front legs then mouths it and mixes his paws like a cat and proceeds to fall asleep. Does your dog do this?

It's weird but cute and I've only been able to capture him in the act a couple times with my cell phone (not the best pics).

Prob just a comfort thing. I wonder If his teeth hurt?

[PharmACT]

No, that is cute though
My dog has to go under a blanket and wind himself up in it so he is completely covered.

I have a foster dog that's a blanket sucker, blech...

[geaveheadeNox]

Aw. That's cute.

No teeth problems here... I'm gonna go with it's a comfort thing since he usually gets tired eyes and falls asleep lol.

Sounds like it would be fun to watch..... I throw a blanket over ours just to watch them break out lol.

Aww that's so adorable. I've never seen a dog do that. Bentley usually just tries to get so close to me that I move away and I end up on the edge of the bed with him right next to me and an entire bed wide open

He only seems to suck on the fuzzy blankets, non fuzzy ones he just holds in his mouth.
It is kinda gross but the cuteness makes up for that
Does your foster mix his/her paws too? I thought that was the weirdest part lol.

He's the first and only dog I've seen do that.. that's why I had to ask if anyone elses dog does it too lol.
And I know what you mean about owning a bed hog... in our case that would be Onyx. She's so chubby and thinks she can have half the bed to herself. I always have to wake up and try to scoot her over, key word... try lol.

I caught him in his crate here-


And another time on the couch-

[Kuncher]

that is too cute.
has he always done it? to me it sounds like comfort like it is his way of relaxing like a kid that sucks their thumb or blanket.

[xqdrocherz]

oh that's adorable. My girl will paw at her blanket a while until it's the right shape and then sleep. At night she'll come into bed with me and nudge the edge of the blanket so I'll lift it and then she dives under the blankets like she's stealing 3rd base, curls up, and falls asleep.

I have no idea if he's always done it lol.
I was making the dogs food one day (about 2 mths ago) while they were in their crates waiting...
I looked over and that's when I caught him.
I was wondering wth he was doing so I stared at him for a couple minutes until he realized I was looking at him and then he stopped lol.
Now all I have to do is throw a blanket over him and he immediately bites it, takes it too his part of the couch, lays down and tries to fall asleep lol. (He doesn't like to share either lol)

Our other two, Onyx and Rocko, do that also... they make their own beds as if the way I make them aren't good enough lol. They both also shove their noses into the blankets and cover up their eyes. It's cute, I just hate the sound of them struggling to breath haha.

[Hixinfineedom]

That is too cute! None of mine have ever done that

[Enrivaanonock]

Awww, she's adorable lol.

[werkeeque]

I knew a blanket sucker and a teddy bear sucker. Now we have CoCo who kneads and sucks on her ball.

[rootoronpunty]

Yes, my foster does the paw thing too. I think it's related to nursing. The theory used to be that the dog was taken away from the mom dog too soon, weaned too early. But that might be a old wives tale.

[fluoxet]

That is too cute! Never had a dog that did that, though XD

[celddiskend]

Too cute! Kahne gathers all the blanket he can and pushed it under him and lays on like hes making a bed.

[h98hhYxM]

I had a Jack Russell mix that use to suck on a stuffed toy dog back leg to either fall asleep or just for comfort.

[MineOffedOvex]

thats really cute
capone doesnt suck on blankets but he sure does love to play under them
i would agree with the comfort thing also..or maybe she just likes to have her own blanket
