I haven't posted a poll in ages, but this question just struck me today. I wondered how many PT pets chase their tail? I've noticed Tia doing this recently, and I thought she looked so cute doing it that I've now trained her on command to chase her tail. :p I don't really know why she started doing it, she isn't bored, but she certainly looks adorable when she does it. :)

Both Riley and Rebel do....

but thats only because its one of the tricks I taught them ;)

I say "Get your tail" and they spin in circles grabbing it, lol. :D

No, not really. Tango has a couple of times, and so has Tia but it's very rare. Morgan is excellent at chasing other dogs' tails though...she always grabs Winston's and it's not uncommon to see her with a bunch of long, tan fur sticking out of her mouth (poor Tango..).

I don't think any of them really chase after their tails. Sundae sumtimes plays with her tail though.

Adele will chase her tail sometimes, and if you show it to her she will try to get it. :D The corgis don't have much of a tail, and Seine prefers chasing bugs over her tail. :)

Micki, Mini, Shadow and Kyra don't really have tails to chase :(

I've never seen the cats do it either.

Jack only chases his tail when I ask him too, lol. (pic attached)

None of my current dogs do but our RB APBT did. He'd do it whenever he heard music :p I guess it was his way of 'dancing'

Also, whenever he'd hear the word "Tail" he'd start

Here he is in mid-chase :)

Spanky does. She'll chase and chase it forever. When she finally gets a hold of it, she keeps on going. So, picture a little Chihuahua with a mouth full of tail, struggling to go in a circle. That's her. :p

I would love to show you one! The only snag is that Tia's a crafty little girl sometimes and she knows when the camera's on and she stops what she's doing. Hopefully I can catch her out someday and show you :p

Happy and Misty dont, Ripley hasent got a tail, Blair has on very rare occasions, and Perky does all the time, only she has a long back so she more like catches her tail and spins round and round because she cant do anything else lol

Molly used to when she was a pup, and she still does on occasion, but not often. She looks so funny when she does it! I need to get a viddy of it some time.

Astra and Prince don't chase their tails, at least I've never seen them do it.
