| Re: Leaning and sitting on feet?
The leaning was explained to me as a "protective" state. I've also heard it as a dominance thing but neither of my dogs exhibit dominance in any other way. Normally when new people come around my dogs will sit on our feet in between us and a new guest.
My female also likes to herd the kids up into one section of the room and will literally sit on them. I normally will hear yells across the house and I know that the dog has resumed her baby sitting position, and that is normally on top of the kids. My guess is it's her idea of the easy way to keep track of all of them. Wish I could get the same results! |
