Yes the dog stretchs in sanskrit are Adho Muhka Svanasana, and Urdhva Muhka Svanasana

Animanls are much more body savvy then we paltry humans. They know after resting you get up and stretchhhhhhhhhhhhh..

Downward dog and Upward dog were named after the dog stretches. I love the one Magic does, he stands up and then stretches one hind leg out behind him, shakes it then does a three legged upward dog pose. Hilarious to watch.
