Title: Where's their softspot?
Post by: bizzylizzy on October 04, 2017, 07:51:46 AM: Have recently discovered Humphrey's got a very softspot at the base of the throat/chest. :luv:, if I give him a scratch there, he stretches his neck and head backwards and goes all soppy :lol2: !!! Just done it while he was sitting next to me on the couch and he leaned so far back he lost his balance and nearly fell off!!! :005: Where are your cocker's softspots?

Don't we all, Min :lol: Jack loves it too, but especially on his neck just under the ears, preferably both. Very gently.
