While dogs love affection, I don't think I've owned a dog who loved it quite like my female Bernese (pictured) does. Her counterpart is a golden retriever. So much love in the casa!

Yes, I do not allow it. They are a working breed and can be very strong. Demanding attention can become an issue.

I mean, I think it's kind of cute but hey, to each their own. 🤷🏻♂️

Yes advanced training to prevent future issues.

I don't think it's that deep.
My male is like that. And he can be super insistent which can be .. annoying at best and painful at worst. He will punch me to get my attention. So we have trained him to give us space, by literally saying space. I used to complain about having dogs that don't cuddle... man, I got the opposite with this one.

If he doesn't cuddle with me when we go to bed get irritated. As a puppy I had to hold his paw for him to sleep. He would lay between my husband and I and could put his paw in my hand... he's such a HAM.
