The power of the sport setting on the camera – the rapid pictures that tell a story. My goal here was to get a picture of Ruby’s unique sitting style, but coupled with a wood floor, we captured a “slippery” moment.
The Sit – Ruby style
From the front angle
The back legs starting to slide
Oooooooops
Crash
And roll
I meant to do that
P.S. – Happy birthday to Steve and Kat. Go visit them and wish them the happiest of birthdays!

Wings of Doom
December 12, 2024
A simple nightly routine with my dogs led me to face the wings of doom, a hideous creature that lurks in the shadows of my yard.
Juno has a similar style. We call it the “low cal platz.” (Platz is german for “down”) Juno’s very good at conserving calories so she won’t spend them actually working to go to a platz. instead, she lets gravity do the job thereby expending as few calories as possible! Way to go Ruby!
I see nothing wrong with the way Ruby is sitting. I sit like that all the time.
The slide and roll though, I don’t do that.
Holly
I do that too! Eva doesn’t because she refuses to sit on the wood floors. She even scurries from rug island to rug island.
Bricey Boy
You get a ten with those moves! And now I’m ready to crash…
Ha.. Ruby that looks like the dance.. the electric slide. I see your humans are easily entertained. Give them a beer and look.. sliding entertains them.

Thanks for the birthday wishes!
I sit on my hip like that, but I don’t slide. Steve is the slider in our family. I am the roll-over-and-show-my-tummy girl though. It looks like Ruby has it all in one cute, furry package!
Kat
Ruby looks very stylish. And I know she meant it.
Huffle Mawson
Of course you meant to do that! It was Very Graceful!
*kissey face*

That was quite the slide! I’m always slippin’ around on our floors too. It’s rather embarrassing actually.
I hope you all have a grrrrEAT day!
Sparky
Oh yes! She meant to do it! 🙂
Mochi
Ha roo roo roo!
Play bows,
Zim
Why of course it was planned and planned PURRfectly if we may say so. Now how ’bout showin’ us a down☺
Woo know Rusty told her to do that to make woo laugh!
I’m still worried that she isn’t khomfy and khozy enough in her new environment – I mean she looks so tense anxious afraid concerned and certainly unloved 😉
Tank woo again to The Thundering Herd Annex fur saving another one of us!
Hugz&Khysses,
Khyra
Woodrow does that too – and i really do think he means too – he sits and lets gravity do the rest
Woodrow – Sweetie – MJ
Obviously this was completely intentional!
Wooos! Poor Ruby! Are they making fun of your sit? I like to sit like that too, so it is ok with me, just start learning some evil expressions from Queen Natasha and they won’t make fun of you anymore!
-Kira The BeaWootiful
That is hilarious!! Her expression in the last picture is priceless!!
Now that’s sliding sibe-style! Pawesome!
Thanks for sharing your day with us!
Cheers,
Maxx
Don’t worry Ruby, I knew that you ‘meant’ to do that! My dogs always mean to also! What a beautiful dog you are.
Nothing better than a planned trick on the HuUncle.
woos, the OP Pack
Of course, she did. Meant to do just exactly that, a quick sit to a nice lie down. And what a good job she does of her novel technique!
I’m gonna try that!
Kisses,
Stella
