A friend of mine had a little red and white Border Collie that loved to play baby. She'd be quiet and still while cradled in one's arms. Otherwise it was Border Collie normalcy, a simmering vat of go-go-go.
My dad was the same way. He was a drill instructor in the Army and he was a bit flinty. Get him near a dog and he was mushy as oatmeal. He connected well with dogs. Like I said, he was a hard one and was abrasive with people. Yet, even consider harming one of his animals and he'd go off. I learned early and without any doubt that treating animals with respect and care was the ONLY option. I owe him a lot for that life lesson.
