Is trotting on walks a Staffy thing?

Charlie doesn't believe in walking, he trots. He does have very short legs, which probably has something to do with it, but I do remember seeing a neighbourhood Staffy trit-trotting on her walks every day. I never saw her walk! Is it a Staffy thing? I do love watching his butt wiggle as he struts in front of me!

Yep Doug does this too!

Darcy trots too, like a horse

Looks like it IS a Staffy thing!

Yes Rocky has a very sexy wiggly bum too when he trots about the place.

Frankie trots but if he thinks you're walking too slowly he does a kind of slow motion waddle!!

Love that avatar of Frankie! Charlie is a belly-flasher too.

yep harvey trots

Yup my two are trotters too

Yes Lily trots too and if you watch her from behind she looks like the donkey out of Shrek

Yep Daisy trots, when she does walk it looks really awkward!!

Awww Moo doesn't Off lead she is running like a loon, and onlead she just marches by my side!

Vinnie is a trotter too from the back it does look just like a horse. Ooh I love his wiggly bum though:D

Awww moo, maybe it's because she's half hyena?!

She does the wiggle bum buts usually when she has/shouldn't have done/or be doing something naughty

Diesel trots so cutely sometimes but Leroy doesn't , maybe coz he doesn't have enough control of his gangly legs (if u ever watched Friends and saw the one Phoebe and Rachel went runnin rather wackaly? thats how Leroy looks when he runs)

They don't trot.

They strut!

That's the word Caryll STRUT! yes its almost quite arrogant at times like "Look at me!"

Yep mine struts too, all the time

I think most dogs do really.

marley will strut his stuff and curl his tail over his back when hes posing, laska on the other hand is a cross between a baby deer taking its first steps and a drunk elephant bless her. she is so pretty but such a clumsy oaf.

Bacchus definitely struts. They are very confident, self assured little dogs.

Yes, kenny trotts too, must be a staffy thing. At a couple of shows he had this thing of walking like a toy dog, all flicky feet, a bit like those horses you see.

Tia does this too....she also veers off to the left whenever she trots. Funny little traits that our dogs have.

Yeah Sookie does this too. Had people comment on her walking style before when following her as surprised a dog walks like that.
