One year ago today Miss Bette came to live with me! She's finally got me trained the way she likes things--at least I hope the training has finished.

My only real issue is I still can't find her thumpy spot....cockapoos do thump when you scratch them just right, don't they?

I'm calling this her birthday, since I don't know when it really is, so she'll get a little extra spoiling for her 11th!

awe my little friend! Happy Birthday/Anniversary day! such a special poo!!!
Lady doesnt rally have a thumpy spot, or not one that is easy to find...occassionally you can get her going by rubbing her inside of her ear with your knuckle....that sounds weird..its not really inside inside...lol.

Happy Anniversary and Birthday Bette & Suze :)

Ahh the thumpy spot, sometimes I find it on my dogs but not all of them react to a thumpy spot... funny thing and always makes me laugh when the do react :) so cute

Ear and tummy rubs are loved by my dogs .. well Honey will just flip over and show her belly for a tummy rub, way too cute.

Happy Belated Birthdays!!!

Dudley occasionally does the thumpy thing but not often enough to say he has a definite 'spot' for it.

Happy Birthday Bette! Xxx

Lola's thumpy spot is just at the bottom of her rib cage, at the left side of her tummy. She really gets going if we scratch her there. I don't do it often cos I feel like I'm tickling her and I hate tickles on me!
