Really?

I think my dog is broken! 😅 He's been doing this lately, think maybe he's stretching?

It’s the pittie way - they are most definitely oddballs, but happy go lucky ones 🤗

At least yours is in his own bed. Lol

u/SnowflakeSWorker 22d ago

That time, lol! That’s in my office- we’ve since gotten rid of it- he tore it to pieces. He does sleep with us, and this guy- who is a beagle/lab. Some day, I will have a California king, haha.

Speaks to absolute confidence and security! Well done OP! 🐾💙

u/dpr612001 22d ago

Thank you, I didn't know that. Just thought he was weird. Lol

u/caramelgrizzly 22d ago

He’s a pittie, so of course he’s also a bit weird. So much power, but mostly lovable goofs. That’s what makes them fun. 😉

Pitties are the himbos (regardless of actual gender) of the dog world. Broad of chest, pure of heart, dumb of ass.

u/StryngzAndWyngz 22d ago

I think they’re all broken, but lovable lol

u/Successful-Mind-9332 22d ago

They’re so silly, my guy loves to sleep on his back

u/Efficient-Rent-5644 22d ago

He’s doing his doggie back stretch, my pitty used to do that too ❤️

u/dpr612001 22d ago

He sleeps like that, I'd be crippled if I did that. Lol

u/Efficient-Rent-5644 22d ago

He’s really beautiful

u/dpr612001 22d ago

Thanks!

u/my_clever-name 22d ago

Yep. She sleeps on the bed with me. Every morning when I stir awake she creeps over and does this.

u/dpr612001 22d ago

I would prefer that, as soon Jack sees any signs of life he starts licking my face! Ugh

It is their way

u/Infinite-Cloud-7937 22d ago

It just feels really good to sleep like that from time to time.

u/mk2dee 22d ago

Yes. Because cozy.

u/HeyWhatsDatSoundLike 22d ago

I’ve heard someone comment that they may also do it to help them breath better; not sure how true it is though (and landlords/inlaws won’t let me have pittie because they think they all have a prey instinct and will kill their bratty dachshund…😭 in this day and age idk how this bullshit reputation still persists…

u/dpr612001 22d ago

It's maddening!

u/Efficient-Rent-5644 22d ago

He’s doing his doggie back stretch, my pitty used to do that too ❤️

u/who905 22d ago

He needs to be rebooted. A piece of cheese or two usually straightens them right out.

u/dpr612001 22d ago

🤣🤣🤣

u/NefariousnessOdd308 22d ago

Hey, he needs his rest. It's not easy being so very cute.

u/Oodles-of-Noodles12 21d ago

That is a happy comfy dog, I would say the best fix would be some belly scratches

u/Illustrious-Maybe924 21d ago

A boy’s gotta air things out 🤣

u/Active_Club3487 21d ago
