Happiness is a wet nose

Growing up with dogs, my mom always used to say...

Happiness is a wet nose.

Here are a couple examples I have on hand of happy wet noses...

Diane Pagel's Imp. Kuro (at age 7 mos)

Del'Mar Scot (at age 9 yrs)

Now, with a 6 month old puppy in the house, I am thinking of happiness being more along the lines of...

Happiness is a puppy that asks to go outside 100% of the time thus not having an accident in the house anymore.

This makes me a very happy panda.

What is happiness to you?????
