Flat Dog
I just wanted to see if any one else's corgi's do this and it was a corgi trait. When I take my corgi's for a walk and they get tired. They both flop on their belly's and refuse to move. I call this flat dog.

Flat dog syndrome; I like that tag. My guy, Niki is known for pulling that trick, more so on my daughter and husband than on me. The minute he plops down I give him a tug just behind his head. I just got back from a short vacation so it will be interesting to see what he challenges. Niki has a vey sharp little mind of his own but that just makes him all the more fun.

The best is when Owen is in a full sprint and my husband or myself are in a nice jog and pulls that move! Rip your arm out of your socket...

I like that term "flat dog".....good one.
Yes!! I used to cut our walks short because I thought he was tired but noticed he'll sometimes do it only after 15minutes. When Steve would do it during longer walks I thought he was trying to cool his tummy since he does it under a huge tree or in a nice shade. It's kinda embarrassing when he does it in a crowded park...

I'm so glad to know that Sid is not the only one! I guess he's trying to make me laugh, and I'll stop worrying about him.

Hee hee, we call this 'Slug', but 'Flat Dog' is a good description. I guess I am lucky Vash only pulls this stunt in the grass, not while walking ^^;

It's great to hear that my corgi's are not the only one's that do this. :)

I thought that I was the only one that trudged up the hills carrying a 37 lb corgi. At that rate I needed a nap myself.

I can relate. My daughter carries Sidney when he "goes flat". At least she's building up some upper body strength!
