Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | Do you love it when they stretch? Marcel is up on my computer desk (very awkward to type) and he just did his version of stretching. It's so flippin' cute ! He's so little and compact...so his stretches don't actually *go* anywhere, but he really tries so hard. Goes down on his front legs...then stretches upward on front legs and extends one leg backward...jutting out behind him...trying so very hard to work it all out. When Pfeiffer stretches, she looks like a little frog - bc she *loves* to make frog legs out behind her, and then uses her front legs to crawl/pull forward to stretch. And her back legs just drag relaxingly behind her.... Wylie prefers to stretch like the big dogs. BIG stretches, very extended. Like dog yoga. He loved being 'stretched' by hubby when he was a puppy...hubby would put his hands on Wylie's torso and Wylie would just loooooove the stretch assistance. Do you love watching them stretch? No matter how many times they do it, it's as cute as the last time.....

| YES! I thought I was the only crazy one Chloe has by far the cutest stretch imaginable- each one is sooooo long and drawn out

| OMG! Yes. The cutest thing ever! When Moka stretches, she lets out this low pitch moan like "oooooooooooh" with a bit of a gargle in her voice. It is so stinking funny!

| My favorite is when my boys are in my bed on their backs and they stretch themselves out full length. They look 4 feet long! The other one I enjoy is the "pushup" that starts with a sort of play bow, tush in the air. Then they extend their necks and heads up high, pushing their hips to the floor while stretching each back leg out straight. Then boom, they sit and yawn.

| My mom calls it Kaji's morning yoga. He stretches on the floor, extending his legs and separating his toes. Then he goes to the couch and puts his front paws on the couch to stretch some more. The entire time he stretches, he does these big drawn out yawns. It's a rare treat to watch him add the back legs. Seems the back legs don't need as much stretching.

| Yes it is mega cute to see them stretch. They both do it differently. My cats are cute when they do it also

| It does look like Yoga when my girls stretch usually. If Maddie is still in the bed she does a full bodystretch like Kristen mentioned. soo cute and she looks soooo long. They do that little shake is if they are trying to get every millimeter out of their stretch. |

| They look so cute when they strecth. Before we got out, I get Sammy's leash and I tell him to do stretchies and he does. Then I put the leash on and we go for a walk. |

| I love when they stretch. It is so cute. My boy likes to get on his belly and reach one paw forward and then the other and switch back and forth. My little girl lays on her back, arches her back and stretches all four paws out in front of her at the same time. I also like it when they reach out their front paws and stick their but up while yawning. It is all so stinking cute. What about when they rub their eyes with their paws? |

Thor's Human Donating Member | I didn't realize dogs stretched differently. Thor does the adorable poses named for dogs, downward and upward facing dog. He almost always does them together. I read that those poses show love and respect when the dog is doing them in front of you, but I'm pretty sure Thor is just stretching. When he's reaaaaaaaally relazed during a tummy rub, he raises his front legs up over his head. It looks like he's being put under arrest. Hilarious and darling, natch.
