We got home from Kitty's today with a thing of leftover steak. Dahlia is always excited about this and usually "sit pretty" turns into sit pretty and then "jump up and put my paws on their chest."

But then one time she sort of balanced for a moment on her hind legs with both front paws just dangling in the air and David gave her a treat while she was like that.

So I wondered...can I repeat it?

And I did...and this time she balanced for like 10 seconds, like REALLY balanced, sort of dancing around on her hind legs to keep the position. We did it like 4 or 5 more times. It was SO AWESOME. Seriously. I LOVE MY DOG!!!!

That sounds so cute. I wish I could get my dog to do something like that. He is to clumsy though. lol

Awww that is so cute! I demand a photo :)

I always tried to get my dog to 'sit pretty'.. but being that she's a bully breed she never really had the hips for it LOL

She does sit pretty (http://www.flickr.com/photos/crysania4/4511539589/in/set-72157623833033856/) really well. But no luck on a picture of the stand yet. We'll work up to getting her to do it. I think that'll be my new "show off" trick for my work picnic this August. lol

PICTURES OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN!

I'm jealous, I CANNOT get Sparky to do that. He either begs or jumps, nothing in the middle.

LOL I know! I'll get pictures once she gets better at it. Last night we tried it again and she didn't seem to get it as easy. I think it was super high value treat + our coming home that equaled super dog! lol
