Clare70 Posted January 25, 2014 Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before but does your Husky cross his front paws? Whenever Harry is laying down but not asleep he has one paw crossed over the other Just wondering if it's a Harry thing or a Husky thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clare70 Posted January 25, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2014 Yeah he does look pretty regal when he's doing it, can't be comfy though. I have to say I've not noticed other breeds doing this, Huskies are so strange Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed #5 Posted January 26, 2014 Report Share Posted January 26, 2014 (edited) It's definitely not just a Husky thing, my spaniel and lab both did it and Sasha, who is a Husky, also does it. Okay, as I've said before "Google is my friend" Fluther.com has a small discussion there ... If you look at the elbow joint, slightly rotating the shoulder joint means that the full weight of the torso does not rest directly on top of the bone. If you rotate your own elbows away from your sides, you’ll notice that you hands move toward each other. In the case of dog legs, they will sometimes cross their feet so that the elbows can move even further out. It’s just more comfortable. WikiAnswers has this comment regarding Labs who do this: They are just resting. This is not really a breed trait, many dogs do this, but you will see it often on dogs, like labs, who have longer legs in proportion to their bodies (also called "up on leg"). and YahooAnswers has several discussions Edited January 26, 2014 by Al Jones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
