Kia does that! :D She gives me that kind of hug everytime I come home from work.

I have to kneel in order for it to work and sometimes she gets so excited she knocks me down and covers me with kisses. :D

But Kia does not like to be hugged as in me wrapping my arms around her. The Trainer at her obedience class said it was because she doesn't want to feel dominated.

Hugging is one of Simba's tricks. I say "Simba, Gimmie a hug!" and he jumps up with his paws on his shoulders and hugs me. I love hugging Sim sim. Nala wiggles away but she's just a pup! so who knows.

well i always hugged her just for the love and comfort but i never thot that it had to do w/ dominance:confused:

My boxer used to do that. It was so sweet!

We all hug Valentine all the time. But my son is the only one that she likes to kiss her. If I go to give her a kiss, she looks at me funny and backs up, but when Jessie (my son) gives her a kiss she wags her tail feverently and lets out a happy 'yap' and is the happiest dog in the world. Go figure! LOL.:)
