Does Your Dog Like to Sit on Your Feet?

Always Someone at the park told me it's a dominance thing and I shouldn't let her do it?? Wonder if this is true

I read that too but that was by someone who believes in the pack leader theory. I found it hilarious because Zac used to do every single thing on the dominance list

All the time. And my feet are in bad shape from a fall in Dec and a fall the other month so they're not getting chance to heal They also love sleeping across my feet!

All the time, it's one of her favourite places to sleep

Really, I just thought Kenny was trying to warm is butt up

Yep, and sleep on my legs at night which results in paralysis in the morning.

I have heard it's a dominance thing too, but tbh I'm not worried.

Pretty common at our place as well

Here to. I just though she has to be touching one of us for comfort. When I put my shoe's on to go she put her paw on my shoe, then goes to check her lead is still where it should be, almost like she is reminding me to get her lead..

All the time here

Oh yes! Or rest her head on them!

Quite often, although he'll more likely sit at the side of me while I'm working, with his back to me - a sign of trust, apparently? I definitely don't think feet-sitting's a dominance thing, more of a closeness thing. Ha, as I've been typing this, he's got off the sofa and come and sat on my foot

Chiquito lays across my feet all the time While I'm coming he even follows me around and repositions as I move from place to place ... I just figured he was trying to stay up of the cold floor

Gwen occasionally does this..I'm sure she would do it more often if she actually sat down more..but she is always running around like a maniac and rarely stops to take a break lol!
