He is a basset hound. He is cranky, lazy and full of dog rage. When I moved to OKC for training, he tried to bite my landlord the first night in my new apartment.
He barks at everyone and makes lip-smacking noises when I'm trying to sleep. If I leave the bathroom door open when I go to work, he will shred any piece of paper, toilet paper tube, or qtip that he can get his mouth on.
One night I got home from work and he had eaten a Sharpie and left a giant black stain on the carpet that took me 6 hours of scrubbing to get out.
He also whines non stop, and sometimes buries his slobbery, soggy dog food under my pillows and blankets. Getting a handful of cold, soggy, half chewed dog food when you're half asleep isn't pleasant.
He is a spectacular pain in the ass, but he is always there for me, always happy to see me when I get home. His silly face cheers me up when I'm in a shitty mood (unless he's making the lip-smacking noise).

Your dog is awesome. I've got a Lab/Shar-Pei. They are great when you are having a lousy day, not so great when he chews on my sandals, shoes, slippers, etc.
