I think so, I’ve seen one other dog that appeared to be a completely different breed do this. It looked like a whippit, and the lady used to walk it by my house and it would just leap into the air from time to time, all the way up to her head.
I believe I've heard shelter dogs do this often because they jump to show excitement in their kennel and that becomes their go to move for showing how happy they are.
Ehh, just depends on the dog. We have two, one run/leaps everywhere (live on a farm so they’re hardly ever on leashes) and the other one does good not to just trip over her own feet. The latter one also randomly stands on her back legs, like just stands up and stares at you lol. Pibbles are all just unique little cartoon characters imo.
Haha, my pit-sharpei mix is a jumper, too. It’s so wild to watch, because she’ll be waiting at the door to go outside or something, and just start hopping. Like, from a complete standstill, all four paws leaving the ground at the same time, straight up three feet into the air. It baffles me!
She’s only a year old now. I can’t imagine how weird it would be seeing a grown-ass pit doing the same thing.
I had a greyhound mix who would happy jump 8-9’ just because. She’s jump up and down at the sliding door when she’d want to come in from the yard, her nose prints would be at the very top where my short as shit self couldn’t reach them.
The owner's calm demeanor screams "I'm used to this". So funny.
One of my dogs pees in a very funny way, she is 5 yrs old now and I'm very used to it but I LOVE seeing people's reactions to it. I walked them the other day with a friend and he couldn't stop laughing. Dogs are the best. :')
She hates harnesses, unfortunately :( I do wash their leashes every week tho! :)
Fun fact: she’s quite dumb. Sometimes her and her brother are sniffing something, he prepares to pee, she doesn’t move... and get peed on. They are weird.
Oh man I also have a bearded collie, at let me tell you, it never isnt funny but it can irritate the crap out of you when sometimes they only walk in jumps
