How does your dog ask to be taken outside?

I’m using my desktop computer and, yes, sitting at my desk. Sadie just walked over and gently pushed my arm with her nose. She also whimpered softly a few times. It was all very ladylike of her. Of course, I’m about to logoff and take her for a nice walk.

How does your dog communicate his/her needs? Does he put his leash in his mouth and bring it to you? Does she sit near and stare at the door?

Just curious.
