"Yes you two, dogs when groomed and cleaned are very soft." Johnny chuckled with amusement at the both of them being so surprised and marveling about the dog. "Yeah Babe, pull your throws a bit so he can get still get it. I doubt even the best retrieval dog could get their toy back from one of your real throws Babe." Johnny explains to Steph in case she didn't know. Johnny was standing under the shade sail hands in his pockets as he watched his two lovers play and pet the dog, and interact more with him.<br/><br/>Cindy smiled and after a nod from Johnny began to explain things for Loki. "He does it because it is fun to do. Just like we humans dance or bake, and play musical instruments. All dogs have hunting instincts left over from when they were wolves. Because they don't need to hunt anymore we use those instincts to keep their minds sharp working and their bodies moving in a healthy way for them that we call play. Play is a term used for puzzles, excersize, and even bobding time with people. Proper play hits all three of those important area's." Cindy explained carefully and fully for Loki, glad he was inquisitive. Johnny already seemed knowledgable about dogs already so Condy was lretty please.<br/><br/>Louis chased after his floater toy and returned it even to Loki, who pet him as well. Louie was really perked up now, his tail up and wagging and happy to play with these people. He grabbed his toy then collapsed onto the ground at Johnny's feet to lay in the shade and cool off some panting. Cindy laughed softly before commenting. "Well it seems Louis knows exactly who the dog daddy is in the household!" Her comment made Johnny blush a little. It made Johnny decide against kneeling to pet the dog and just leave him to cool off on his own.
