    Sparky does occasionally, tho Myndi never does. She probably thinks it wouldn't be befitting to Her Most Royal Highness!

    My son had a shepherd mix (named Casey) that used to sleep like this all the time. Must be something in that name...

    It's Heyoka's favorite sleeping position, especially when it's -40 and sunny! He loves getting his belly cold!
    If you are lucky enough to find a way of life you love, you must find the courage to live it.

    Chance likes to nap upside down. When he does, he snores like a freight train.

    Taggart does it quite often


    Tiki doesn't sleep on her back all that much. She prefers to sleep underneath blankets and such... doesn't like getting cold, I guess.

    Love that pic - one eye open and one eye closed. Tired, but doesn't want to miss anything. Too cute....

    While I'm posting this Koko is asleep on the love seat, on her back with
    both legs spread in a very unlady like manner. She also snores when in this position.

    Must be a "thing" with the big dogs. My brother's yellow lab Buffy (aka The Moose) loves to park herself on the sofa upside down too.
