Dancing Dogs

[jontiff]

Everyday when the neighborhood kids get off the bus and walk past my fence, I hear my Basset's deep and incessant Woof Woof Woof. I usually stick my head out and ask him to hush. As I did so, I saw about 5 children and two mom's stopped in front of my fence laughing at my boxers. They were both doing the kidney bean and wiggling their little bottoms so wildly. Elvis was even so excited he was flinging up dirt with his hind legs. I heard one of the mom's say with a smile, "there they are, the dancing dogs!"

I guess the boxer's greeting ritual does look like a sort of dance- I never thought of it that way. I went back in with a smile.

With the kidney beaning, it almost looks like a mambo!

Boxers do remind me of dancers now that I think of it! How cool of that mom to notice it!

I'm sure they looked like they were doing the tango, with the two of them! It does look like dancing!
