When she has pinched something she shouldn't have

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:

I know that walk really well...always my underwear, also he helps take it off the radiators with the same walk too.

That sums Monty up to a tee!!  He does the springy, look at me walk when he's pleased with whatever contraband he happens to have in his mouth!!

Oh yes, that's why our Molly got the nickname molly-wobbles!  It doesn't help that when she's really excited to see you her little head wobbles from side to side as well, so you've got head wobbling one way, bum wobbling the other!

She also has a separate wobble for when she's nicked something that she shouldn't have...that ones called 'doing the lap of victory' in our house  :005:

Sophie definately sashays from side to side, Emma too busy with her nose to the ground to do any kind of wiggle.

I've walked behind Fraser's jaunty little caboose for 2 1/2 years now and it always makes me smile at how cheerful it looks. His face is very cute too  :D

Sometimes Alfie likes to carry a rock around on a walk and does a different style walk to his usual.  We call it his Very Important Rock Walk.

Max has several funny walks, semi runs with a to legged bounce, another when he's coming to slow down and hops on one back leg. We've only had him since November as a rescue, and he's about 3 1/2 now. So not sure where all his habits come from.

Yep, Alfie has it too. It's like a victory walk as he heads to the back door after performing (almost like a show ring trot) with his tail held level to his back (flag flying high,we say). He also struts past me in similar style in the kitchen every time he takes a toy from his basket and dumps it in the hall, (without playing with it) then returns for another and another and another ...... You can always tell too when he has something that he shouldn't have, by his walk!

Ruby sashays and wiggles her bum! Sometimes though, she flicks up her paws and reminds me of the gestapo  :005:

 :005: Baxter sounds exactly like Alfie and the others with his very pleased with himself, 'I have a prize', trot, head held high, very proud.

He also has an excited wiggle bottom walk for coming to greet people and if you're really lucky, he'll also run round in a circle while trying to half turn on his back, showing some of his tummy and then he'll stick one of his back legs in the air and shake it all about like he's doing a sideways/upside down hokey cokey! It looks so ridiculous and is always a lovely greeting after a bad day at work!   :luv:
