I go for the lower sides, where the belly fluff meets the side fluffs, or the dog armpit, which are good spots for my dog

1. Hands approach both sides of dog's head as joyful noises are administered via your mouth 2. Happy noises get louder as hands touch down on both dog ears at once 3. Rub scritch and fluff the ears + top of pup head, continue to make positive sound effects https://giant.gfycat.com/sillyremorsefuldipper.webm |

I like to bring in a second petter and do a good cop/bad cop routine. First I come in like "WHO'S A GOOD BOY? WHO'S A GOOD BOY? TELL ME NOW!" while giving them a rough housey, tously rub down and getting them all excited, then my partner goes in more gently with ear scritches and face smooshes like "You are! Yes you are!" And drat it, it gets results |

the dogs i see (my boss's dogs) have wrinklefaces so they often get a gentle face massage, wriggling all those wrinkles around, while making direct eye contact and giving them a friendly (no teeth!) smile. they also have tiny nub tails so they don't really wag them but one of them responds with very happy wiggles, and the other responds with pawing at my leg if i stop, so also one of them likes to get friendly thumps on the side while leaning into my leg. she is barrel shaped and the thump is quite resonant, it's great

I let her into my lap and she stretches out her tummy, and then while petting her tummy she leans back far enough to see the world upside-down. Another good one is letting her on the sofa while watching something, and she nuzzles into me then curls into the other side of the sofa, but then occasionally prods me to get me to rub her belly |

Heather Papps posted:give a scritch to the haunch, wait for a dance. if no dance occurs scritch a new area. some older dogs reeeeally like it when you give their hips and lumbar a good rub. careful, though - hip dysplasia can be really painful for some of them - to the point where they'll bite if you even get near their hips.

With a little dog with a long face you're gonna want to get in under the chin and then work your way up to the big floppy ears. Do not scratch the tongue he will not like it.

I fear intimacy, so my dog and I mostly shake hands and make small talk. Sometimes there is a really awkward shoulder-based hug, but the embrace is always either too tight or too loose, and it's kind of creepy for both of us. |

Imagine your dog is a fish. Right behind the gills is a good spot |

I tell all my friends that they are “scritches”, but deep down I know it’s just a normal scratching technique
