Jasper turned 3 today, and I also believe he has hit his maturity level.
Jasper is very well socialized, and loves people.
I usually let Jasper smell people first, before petting is allowed (I do this so if he is overly excited-which is a rarity) it doesn't reinforce the behavior.
So, when Jasper meets someone, and after they pet him (and everyone who meets him, loves him, and they show it (happiness, smiles, etc), Jasper slithers around them like a snake, ears back, very happy looking, and just loves to be loved.
I assume this is pure happiness, and taking it all in (did this with my bragg post the other day).
So does anyone elses GSD do this, and am I correct in my thoughts?
Thanks
Jack
