Curl up into a ball.
This is an easy posture for dogs to fall asleep, which has several advantages.
First of all, the curled state of the body will protect the weak abdomen and effectively reduce the loss of body heat. In addition, if the dog feels that the surrounding environment is relatively safe and can sleep for a long time without being disturbed, it may also curl up like this.
Normal prone position
This is the dog's short rest posture.
Although they can sleep in this position with their eyes closed, they usually sleep lightly or doze off instead of preparing for a good sleep. This posture usually appears when the dog is tired or bored but not too sleepy. He will lie beside the shovel officer and take a short rest in this position.
Stretch one's limbs sideways
This means that dogs are at ease with the environment. They are sleepy and need a good sleep. Sometimes, after lying in the prone position mentioned above for a period of time, dogs lie down to one side, stretch their limbs forward for a few seconds, make similar stretching movements, and then relax their eyes and get ready for a good sleep.
Banyapa
This posture often appears in small mammals or short-legged obese dogs, such as Bugs, Corgi, Fado and Dou Ying, and occasionally in long-legged dogs. The appearance of this posture is related to the dog's personal habits, and sometimes it is related to the temperature. If the indoor temperature is relatively high and the dog feels very hot, he will use this posture to spread himself flat on the ground to cool down.
