When my grandson was visiting when he was about 3 or 4, we had gone across the street to talk to the neighbors. They had a large white dog with long hair. A beautiful dog and gentle. I think I told Jake to give the dog a hug. Instead of hugging him around the neck, he was standing behind him so he just leaned over and hugged him from behind. I have a picture of him and the dog. I guess he had never been shown to hug a dog around the neck. Grandma said hug the dog and he was hugging the dog.

Well, if Buzz could meet your cows he would insist on hugging them....He hugs every animal he meets, slavering bulldog, horse, whatever.....
