Does anyone elses corgis sleep on their backs with their feet in the air?

Both of my corgis (Bella and Sparky) frequently sleep on their backs feet straight up in the air. And sometimes at very awkward angles, that can not be comfortable, haha but they get really into it... Case in point Bella snores :) I'm just curious to know if anyone else has a corgi that is this goofy

Yup!!! One of Soffie's favorite positions! But interestingly enough, Griffyn not so much!

Notice how he's guarding the doorway too? That's the herding instinct kicking in. Gotta now where the sheep are at all times. :)

its how they rest their spines to take the weight off. All corgi's have that inbuilt.

Ragnar's now 9 nearly 9 months and he still does it. He likes to get between us on the bed and sleep flat on his back, feet in the air, head on the pillow. His cat buddy now also does it, although she flops all her limbs down instead of up in the air. It's really funny--I swear she learned from him.

Just got an email from the breeder that the puppy we're getting, Ragnar's 1/2 brother, is currently sleeping flat on his little back, all four feet in the air.

Our Truman (corgi) sleeps on back with legs straight in the air all the time and we laugh. No matter how many times we see it, we laugh. Basketball was on last night and I was bored so was on YouTube watching corgi clips most of the time...laughing my head off -- too funny! My partner finally had that moment where realized it wasn't just our dog - it's ALL Corgi's. They are all just a bundle of whatever they want to be kind of dogs.
