Chuck's happy rub: After every meal and walk, Chuck will rub the sides of his head on things for a good 2 or 3 minutes. Indoors it is usually the couch/loveseat. Outdoors it is usually the one section of chain link fence, which almost makes as good of a sound as when he decides to do it on the deck railing... thunk... thunk... thunk.
Ripley eating habits: As a puppy she refused to eat unless she could work for her food (do tricks and be fed by hand or use one of the food dispensing toys). Now she's on a raw diet (helped immensely with her stomach issues) but still isn't thrilled about the food just sitting there and doing nothing. She'll lay on the floor until Chuck almost finishes his and will then get up and walk over and start taking the worlds smallest bites of food right as he finishes so that he can stand there and stare at her while she eats. If he's not around she'll wait until you put it down and eat normally.
The excited yip of death: Both dogs when excited (rabbits playing in front yard, etc) will make this high pitch yipping sound that sounds like they are dying. The same sound is sometimes made when they are happy to go outside and start zooming. A few folks have heard it and though one of them hurt themselves badly... nope, joy just sounds like imminent death.
