My Maple will do this, but she only likes to do it on the bed. That is probably because we do not have any carpet, only hardwood floors (I live in a 110 year old house). I will have to get a video of it and post it. It makes it really funny because usually she does this early and the bed is not made, so you just see all these covers kicking around and then all of a sudden she will bounce up on all fours.
GSP are such clowns sometimes. |

| Halo and Ringo do this all the time. The funniest is when Halo and I are at a show and waiting to go into the ring and she decides she needs to relax. She will roll over and watch everyone walk by. Halo and Ringo both do it when they find a softener towel from the dryer. They will roll on the towel. Makes them smell good. |

| I find Xara in the living room in that exact position every morning. Rolling around, or stretched out on her back airing her belly with a goofy expression on her face. |

Lol, love the video! So awesome. Casey does it too, but not so much in the morning as much as after a good walk. He'll roll over and does a little bit of playing. I think it is mostly when he is feeling really content/happy and relaxed. I think she's happy to see you! |

Layla does it a lot! Actually, I've posted a short video on Facebook of her in almost the same pose while on our daily walk. She actually fell into a ditch once because she started on a slight hill & rolled down on her back.  |

Ha ha- Cooper does that every morning, too! He'll do that in our bed after he his morning potty and feed. We only have hardwood and limestone floor in our house, so he doesn't do that on the floor at our house. ...Although that changed about a week ago when we installed a large area rug in the nursery. Every morning before his potty he wanders into the baby's room, rubs on the rug, and then heads to the front door. Such a clown, for sure! Bev- Cooper does the dryer sheet rub-down, too. HOW FUNNY! I thought that was just one of his oddities!!!  |

| Rocky does that on leash when we are walking back from a nice field run. I think he likes the feeling of fresh cut grass on his back. The morning blades of grass with dew may be cooling too on him. |
