Does your dog have a 'jaunty' walk??
« on: January 22, 2012, 07:33:16 PM »
As the title says- does your dog have a jaunty walk?

Fred is especially 'jaunty' after a good download in the garden, he finishes his business, has a quick stretch, pricks up his ears and then virtually skips to the back door to be let in - totally different to his usual mooching around walk or his out and about racing through life usual style. Is he just an odd beggar or do other cockers have 'special' walks as well?

Toby does! When we are out he almost looks snooty as he prances around!  :luv:

Jeff is a very "jaunty" walker - great description :005: Just watching his jaunty little trot makes me laugh all the time  :luv:

Not as such, Odie only does the typical 'cocker bottom wiggle walk' when he's in the mood to play (which is often :lol2:) or when I've left him for ages (ie. 2-3 mins  :005:).  When out and about, he'll mainly have his snout to the ground snuffling around :lol2:
Both taken away from us far too soon. x  RIP Angels Odie & Archie, causing mayhem at the Rainbow, no doubt!

Kooki's wiggle bottom nose to floor walk has now been renamed 'wombling' as she seems to womble along in her own wee world!!

Max did exactly the same as Fred  :005:  You could always tell when he came back in that he had a weight of his mind!!  He would bounce in the back door and prance around  :005: Bertie is a bit of a sniffer, so trundels along, nose down.  Lara has a good look around, and stops for a sniff.

When they're just walking my two sort of bounce. I love watching them walk with their sides touching, bouncing along in unison :luv:

Maisie's back legs seem to bounce as if she's wearing those running blade things  :lol2:. Makes me chuckle every time I walk behind her.....a definite spring in her step  :005:

Coco always makes me laugh when I walk behind her with her happy little bottom wiggle  :luv: :005:

When she has pinched something she shouldn't have or is refusing to get in the car when I ask her, she has a very cocky little strut that she does with her head in the air and her bum waggling and she looks incredibly proud of herself  >:( :lol2:

Oh yes, I know that jaunty walk only too well, head back, shoulders up, "Look at me mum...I'm so proud that I've pinched the clean undies from the tumble drier...again!!"  :005:

We definitely have a jaunty walker here!

Particularly when OH gets home from work or we have a visitor. She goes straight to her toy-stash, pulls out a favourite toy and then struts around the living room with the toy in her mouth, waggling her bottom and flicking up her paws like a tiny show-pony!

OMG...that's what Lyla did!  She would literally trot past you with something in her mouth and just in case you didn't see her, she would do several sweeps past you lol.  I used to say to Mr S that she looked like a Lippizaner horse!
