Darwin cracks me up with all of his relaxation poses. When he gets on the couch, he does this sloppy sit that is pretty hilarious. He sets his paw on the armrest and kind of... flops against the back. He also likes to have his back end on the couch with his front paws on the floor. Anyone else have a doodle with weird relaxation habits?
Our doodle sits like your's does kind of like a human. Sits on her butt with her legs out in front of her. The only time Sandy (our labradoodle) sits like your's with her feet straight in front is when she's on the stairs.
Love it Darwin! Gavin's philosophy is why sit when you can lie down. Even when I put him in a sit, his feet just slide out from under him and voila he is lying down. Lazy dood!
My doodle loves to sit with two paw on and two paws off, but sometimes it's the front paws, sometimes the back paws and sometimes it is the left side or the right side.
I thought I had the only Doodle who kept two paws on the floor while resting on the sofa. Maggie spent over an hour last night working on her marrow bone on the sofa with two back paws on floor.
That is how my Charlie sits too...except he always leans to one side. However, he much prefers to either stand or lay down to sitting. He usually only sits for a treat or when he wants to see out when riding in the car (which is only when the car stops or he hears the blinker).
