When Arlo was a little puppy, he would sit like this, with one hind leg kicked way out to the side. I started coming over and saying “CHICKEN LEG” and then grabbing the top part of that leg and giving it a few squeezes.
He still sits like this. I still squeeze the chicken leg.
Heh literally took a picture of our little puffball in her favorite sitting position yesterday.
CHICKEN LEG
I love when dogs have weird little works like this. Please tell them I said, CHICKEN LEG and give it a few squeezes for me.
mine does this a lot. she loves scratches right on the top of the honches. Like scrathing an elbow. When she gets scratches like that she will extent her leg fully so you can get the whole scratchies in good.
Arlo will lift up his front legs so that he can get his armpits properly scratched.
When we’re putting food in his bowl, he runs to the mat by the patio doors and waits patiently. Nobody ever told him to do this; he just decided that that’s what he should do.
He also gets very anxious about the kitchen trash bag being removed from the can, and must help you take it to the can in the garage. We have no idea why this is the case.
