Tartok Tuesday – Relaxation Techniques

Tartok

Sure, I celebrated my 7th birthday this past weekend, but that just means I have great experience in how to relax properly.

Such as the ‘Maximize Kitchen Floor Stretch” which is most useful in tripping the humans and securing extra snacks.

And then there is the “Half Belly Cooling” which also allows you to monitor the dinner table carefully – again, just in case an extra snack should fall to the floor.

And then, of course, the “Full Belly Cooling” which maximizes relaxation – used only when falling food is unlikely as it is a little slower to react position.

    My bro’ YoYoMa has all of those exact same positions and HE’S seven, too! Hope your barkday was a special day for you.

    Most impressive! I think we’ve got the basic positions mastered, but we haven’t figured out how to integrate the ‘trip-the-humans-for-food’ technique yet. We’ll keep working on it, but now we have something to which we can aspire! 😉

    “Wow”, sez Ayla! “Those are all MY favourite relaxing positions, too! And I will be 8 years old on July 13th!”

    Those half and full belly cooling poses also doubles as invitations to the humans for belly rubs!
