Don't step on my foot

I weighed my 1 1/2 year old sheepie today, he's 105 lbs. Is there anyway I can train him not to step on my foot?

Stilts? :lol: :oops:
I'd say we all have to learn to be quick on our feet since that seems easier to train. Besides, I'm sure the constant task of watching our own feet by jumping around and away from them has to burn some calories. :)
You jest...........

Ditto for sleeping upon and sitting upon
HA I JUST BROKE MY TOE AND WHY DO MY BOYS HAVE TO KEEP STEPING ON IT!!! :twisted:
Just testing to determine when it's healed.
My ankle fractures are now only beginning to feel better....yesterday I was sitting Indian style on the recliner ( yes that dang chair I fell off of ) and Chauncey decides to jump up and give me a kiss, landing his 100lb foot on my ankle. So much for feeling better :twisted: How mad can you get though when he just wanted a kiss ? :aww:
It is so nice to know that we don't have the only sheepy who is h*ll on feet! We are positive she steps on our feet on purpose. None of the other dogs have ever been as hard on our feet as Hannah is.
My puppy has no clue he is on our foot just standing there when he does it. So in return, when I accidentally stand on their foot, as it does happen, I don't mind if I just stand there either. Pfft. He'll move when he doesn't like it. :lol:
It's not only feet though. Ever have a small scrape or cut that is really sore? I swear it could be in some obscure area and someone it going to hit it :roll:
Personally for me it's the toe nails as they pass across your foot. Standing still on a foot is one thing, but digging the toe nail is or just catching a toe with a nail.......ouch!

Same with Barney. And he got me good last night. He was hovering around T's highchair (best hangout in town for him!)...and he took a step and was on my foot and just stayed there. SO painful.
I can tolerate the standing but when my my feet are used to accelerate I can get real cranky.
gosh Dutch must be weird or I have smelly feet cause she never steps on them except when I put my foot on the peddle of the gate and then she will gently put her foot on top of mine :oops: altho she has been know to run full tilt into me and send me flying LOL
Ru stands on our feet, we make a point of putting our foot on his paw straight away.. just in case it's a dominance thing, then he puts his paw back on.. :lol:
Our Bozley who was the largest sheepdog we've owned at one point was 120 lbs. He was not over weight just a bigger than standard sheepdog. He used to step on our feet but what hurt the most was he would pivot and turn. That hurt!!

OUr Rufus is a lot lighter and I guess more nimble on his feet because he rarely steps on our feet.
oh good it's not just chiquita. What is up with constant contact???? And the feet seem to be her favorite place to be.
