    Default I gotta ask(a poo question)

    Okay, this might sound like a silly question: but does anyone's furkid lift their leg when they poop???
    Seriously.
    I have never seen this before. Of course, Pippit is my first male dog(and he doesn't lift his leg for anything)
    Gordie is a lifter. It's funny how high he lifts his leg~he almost tips over sometimes.
    But when he poops~he actually lifts his leg.
    Anyone else?

    Not on the pooping but savannah does very delicately lift her left rear foot when peeing.

    Owen does. He somehow arranges his butt 1 inch from the ground and lifts one leg to make a dairy queen shaped poo. it's quite amazing. Segue has his butt as far from the ground as possible. Salsa too. Laika poops one perfect cigar and then runs away cuz once one caught on her butt hair and she'll never forget.
    Abd Finnegan (I'm STILL dog sitting) poops right at the end of the ramp where anyone walking down will inevitably step in it.

    Jack is a squatter for pee and poop. His butt is getting lower and lower.

    Odie does this! not all the time but sometimes he does. He likes to poo in provate so really half the time I never see him go, he wont if I am outside with him. I'll watch through the window. He does this on the plants in my garden! sometimes he's only on his front two feet and balancing one of the back feet on something

    Nope, the only leg lifts I've ever seen is for peeing.

    On this subject, I do wish Holly would be able to poop without getting it on her long flowing feathers & tail. We've had to bathe her hiney too often. We're considering a drastic haircut back there! Perhaps it's common to long-hairs? Laika seems to have solved it, though.
