Fido just can’t help himself. Each time you scratch that sweet spot on his belly, his hind leg starts kicking like crazy–but why?
Ultimately, it’s all about self-preservation.
“Dogs kick when we scratch their belly because it’s an involuntary reflex,” Dr. Marc Bekoff, a canine expert based in Boulder, Colorado, and author of the book “Why Dogs Hump and Bees Get Depressed,” told The Huffington Post in an email.

Dachshund puppies can hardly contain their excitement to go upstairs
-
They charge straight into the bathroom and leap into the tub, tails wagging
-
One puppy needs a little help to get in, then they happily swim in circles
Dogs have never been known to shy away from charging into the water when walking along the beach – but when it comes to bath time, most are less obliging.These two delightful dachshund puppies, however, can hardly contain their excitement at the idea of jumping into a bathtub.
The adorable little dogs wait with almost unbearable excitement to be allowed upstairs.

Thanks to the residents of a Texas city and a Facebook campaign that has gone viral, an abused dog who was was left for dead in a garbage bag has been given a new chance at life.
The pooch, who has since been named “Buck,” was reportedly found on Jan. 5, after a local resident of Conroe, Tex., noticed that a garbage bag left on the side of the road and “tied to a t-post of a fence” was moving. He tore the bag open and was shocked to find the 3-year-old mixed breed, covered in blood and weakened by the cold, inside.

Zeus is a Great Dane who measures 3 feet, 8 inches tall and weighs 150 pounds. He is exactly what his owners were looking for. When Denise and Kevin Doorlag decided to get a dog, they both agreed they wanted to go big. It looks like the plan worked.
