This is a common position among puppies and very playful dogs.
The superman position is when your dog lays sprawled out on the ground with their belly pressed to the floor, their back legs behind them, and their front legs stretched forward. Sarah Wooten, DVM, CVJ, and the vet expert at Pumpkin Pet Insurance, “dogs will often start out in this position if they feel like they will need to jump up quickly.” 3. Meaning: When dogs sleep in this position it means they are resting, but not sleeping deeply. Your dog can also fall asleep in this position with their front paws tucked in and their back legs at one side. The lion’s pose sleeping position (also called ‘the sphinx’) is when your dog sleeps with their head on top of their paws - similar to statues of lions you might see outside of large buildings.
SLEEPING DOGS LIE PROFESSIONAL
Jen Jones, a professional dog trainer, behavior specialist, and founder of Your Dog Advisor, says that “this position is also where you’ll often notice ‘sleep running’ and twitching during your dog’s dreams, as their paws are loose and free to move.” 2. It’s also when they’re likely to get the most deep sleep. Jennifer Coates, DVM, who serves on the advisory board for Pup Life Today, “dogs will sleep in this position when they are feeling comfortable with their surroundings and are at a comfortable temperature.” Meaning: When your dog sleeps on their side, it means they feel relaxed and safe in their environment. This sleeping position is especially prominent in puppies and older dogs who may be suffering from stiff joints. Lying on their side with their legs extended is one of the most common sleeping positions for dogs. Just like humans, dogs love to sleep on their side.
