is this odd or normal?

my 5mth bitch who i have had since new year does this really strange thing.

she leaves her back legs and body stretched on the sofa whilst putting her front paws on the floor and stands there for a minute or two. her legs work fine, she is fit and healthy but either she is getting a nice sensation from this or forgets how to get off the sofa!!!

Both my dogs do this!!

My dalmo is so funny he puts his front feet over the edge of the sofa as if he's getting into a pool and then starts walking forward with his front legs till just his back feet are still on the sofa, then he waits for a bit then gets his back legs off one at a time.

It looks to me as if they are enjoying the stretch in their hips and back, so I call it doggy yoga. :lol:
Doggie stretch. Also, sometimes they will sit with their front legs and paws on the ground while the rest is on the sofa.
well..anytime I let Heart to jump on me, she always...ALWAYS..uses me as her stretching post...... :roll: :roll: :roll: :oops: :oops:
Maybe just a modified cat or downward dog pose from doggy yoga. Bella does a little strech in the morning leaving her hind legs out back and leaning over her front legs
