Our Pfeiffer does the Superman aka "army crawl" pose too - front legs out, flat on tummy, back legs frog-legged out behind her - we *love* this pose for some reason - it's just so dang cute.
But no worries about joint issues bc of this pose - it's all good  . |
That's a relief!!!! I'm much more worried of her acrobatics- particularly with her zooming and leaping off the bottom four stairs, off of our bed which is one of those tempurpedic that we can raise/lower, etc. or the couches and chairs. She can jump on every surface except for our bed. She uses hubby's comp chair to leap on the desk and then the bed. We WILL block her off, but we can only do so much.
The super man pose is my absolute favorite pose next to the laying on back. It's not that I don't love it- I do. My daughter and i both adore it. We say "crouching wolf hidden fur rug!" She'll drop a ball, go into the play bow- her third favorite sign she's super happy, wag her tail helicopter style. Grab her ball, the one bigger than her little head, pick it up proudly and then drop it, crouching and doing this cute little growl at the ball. Then immediately crouching wolf, hidden fur rug.
It's all the stuff she's doing. She's going to break her leg, mark my words, and I'm helpless as to what to do. bean bags, stairs, landing pads.. we are training her, but it isn't working fast enough. I've even upped her calcium, and I make sure to make her take yogurt/cottage cheese every single day, food or on her spoon. Half a teaspsoon twice a day. I'm talking to vet the day of her spay- in three days- about adding a calcium supplement and the coconut oil and a fw other things. That missing link powder is amazing, and It makes me feel loads better. Doesn't stop her from doing what can happen quite easily with these little guys, supplements or not.
Any way, enough about my rant, this has been on my mind for months. She's just acrobatic. It's how she is, and I can't stop her from doing it. I can only train her to stop jumping off objects.
