Even the orneriest curmudgeon has a weak spot to be exploited as Hu-Dad well knows with our own Little Prince.

Typhoon likes to convince everyone he is a rough, tough sled dog… or, at least, related to rough, tough sled dogs. Thus, he claims no simple human tricks can make him melt.

And then Hu-Dad breaks out the ear rub which is a weak spot. Who can possibly resist an ear rub? That’s a secret weapon that can make the coldest canine melt.

I thought Typhoon had a strict “no touching” rule? Is he mellowing in middle age?
Sweet lil angel!
So sweet ! Ear rubs are the best !
AAWW Little Prince – I am so happy you are enjoying your ear rub-it makes you a little less crabby-lol. I also will keep your secret!
I’m so glad he has a weak spot so you can touch him. I love the photos showing how much he enjoys it! Thanks for the morning smile.
I just KNEW he must have a weak spot!
