More: I do not have a dog. I have a furry friend. Someone who will lick my tears when I am sad and bark at me when it is time for our late night snack. He will play only with spiky balls, no other toy will do. He is very unusual because he loves to get static electricity nose shocks. He will run back and forth on the carpet and then touch your leg with his nose to feel the shock. He will sometimes do it 15 or 20 times in one night. If you lift your legs on the couch so he can't get shocked, he will touch the metal around the television screen or the metal kitchen chair leg to get his nose shock! He adores nose shocks!
