LOL!!!!
Personally, as Louis has a problem walking in a straight line when he is happy because his bottom wriggles from side to side along with his tail, I think not!!!!!

Oh she is adorable!
We have a very excitable doggy here who exhibits the same motion as Louis,my guess would also be no! :-)xx

I just love the way that children can verbalise aspects of life that just pass you by, unnoticed. Had I ever wondered about dogs and tails? Maybe, at some time. But I expect that my adult brain immediately squashed any further thought on the matter. It definitely never got higher than the 'what shall I cook for dinner' thought in my priority list lol.

What, you mean I'm meant to actually put them in cakes and cookies??!! (from the girl who used to eat dog chocs every day as a kid)
