See how comfortable this adorable GSD is as he sleeps with his feet up in the air. I wonder what he’s dreaming about. Can you guess?
Did you know that dogs who sleep on their backs…
Dogs who sleep with bellies feel very secure. When your pal exposes his most vulnerable area, which is his tummy, it only means that he’s not worried about predators or any kind of danger. That’s why dogs that are stressed out are not comfortable resting on his back as they are afraid being caught off-guard.
If your GSD sleeps with legs-up, it my indicate that he is well fed. It may also be due to the same reason you do certain sleeping positions — it’s just comfortable. Lastly, our furry buddies rest on their backs because it helps them cool down. Opening their tummies to the cooling air flow helps regulate temperature when sleeping.
