Coming home is fun when Sassy and Alley are waiting.
Alley hears the garage door open and runs to greet us. Sometimes it's hard to open the door into the house because Alley stands against it with her front paws on the door and her head peering through the window.
Sassy is a bit slower. First, she has to find a toy. In the absence of a plush friend, she'll grab a sock or underwear (it's lovely when guests come over). Then, she prances, tail-wagging, to the door. You think Sassy wants to play. You grab the toy and throw it, but Sassy has no interest. She's only interested in welcoming you home.
The hello ceremony lasts about five minutes. Sassy and Alley wrap themselves around our legs, kissing our hands and making happy-puppy sounds.
It's good to come home.

Max does the same thing. It's like he thinks he's letting you down if he doesn't have a toy in his mouth when he greets you. Silly dogs!
