Depends on the dog. My dog (who's a girl) is like, "Give me a massage now, slave!" *bark*. And if I don't do it fast enough, she'll sigh exasperatedly, then start scratching my knee repeatedly until I give in. She also only comes near you if she needs something, and if she doesn't she'll go lie down on her side with her back on a wall or go throw a doll around or something.
