Robert Elvis Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Bob is a 10 year old Cairn and has done this since He was a pup. He will lay his front legs down and put his head on the carpet, back legs and butt up in a almost genuflecting pose. He'll stay there until you walk over and pet him on the head. Usually does this after we come home and He has been alone in the house for a while. Anyone else have theirs do this or something similar ? Have never seen any other dogs do this.

sanford Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 well my Robby starts like that but as you get close to him he flips all the way over for a belly rub . Ruffy does the same thing. Carrington used to do that when getting up from a nap. He'd get into that position, with his front paws on the floor out in front and his butt in the air and stretch & stretch & yawn until he got a wake-up scritch from me! Cute! FEAR THE CAIRN!

hheldorfer Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Buffy does it too. We call it the "look at me I'm so innocent and adorable" pose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz in PA Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Yup, Hogan does that. He sometimes asumes the most contorted positions, and the butt usually comes up first, before his head, when he gets up... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idaho Cairns Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Love the picture! Nope, ours don't do quite that pose but one thing I have learned about Cairns is that they all have their little idiosyncratic behaviors that are endearing as the dickens. They can work you.

Dempsy's Mom Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Flippin' adorable picture. Dempsy doesn't get quite as low, but does put paws way out front and butt as high as he can get it. Very cute. Elsie, Max, Meeko & Lori Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josie&holly Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Holly does that when she gets out of her bed in morning - she stretches her back legs out and then does that - I call it her yoga session! www.cairnterriertalk.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradl Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Yes, but after the face is down on the carpet they then race around in that plow position - occasionally switching cheeks to rub the other side.
