I think all dobermans are very hedonistic. My boy sleeps in all of the positions Ive ever seen posted. He likes to lie on his back in the grass with the sun hitting his belly. He likes to scratch his back in short grass too (zoysia) Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk |

McCoy is the only Dobe that we have ever owned that doesn't lay on his back like that when it is hot. Kadin also lays on his back a lot - BUT- this is a classic - when he comes in on a hot day - he runs in the mud room - swings around , and stands over the air duck and lets the A/C blow on his belly - lol I have tried a hundred times to get a picture or a video of him doing his , but grab the camera and he's gone . |

This boy lays on his back all of the time. Coco rarely did so unless it was in the grass at the pond especially after a light rain or dew. Mind you she looked much more dignified than this silly boy has ever looked when he's rolling around on his back |

In our family, ever since I was a kid, my sister and I called that position in your first pic, "Skin Dog" McCoy is the only Dobe that we have ever owned that doesn't lay on his back like that when it is hot. The thing that makes it so cool (odd?) looking when a Doberman does it, is that huge chest point skyward tapering done to a skinny waist. Not to mention the very prominent ...uh..parts, if they have them. LOL. It's almost a cartoonish John Lichtwardt Portland OR |

Hey DT!! It's Sugar. We are having a heatwave and we still have the virus here although it's getting better. I don't care because mama has been working from home since the beginning of March. I work with her everyday and I'm usually pretty good. I sleep through most of our zoom meetings and sometimes stick my face in the camera to say hi to our coworkers. We go to the pond midday to watch the heron and look for the beavers. I get to smell lots of stuff and pee on everything! I know mama loves the pond and we feel Coco down there so it's a great time. Coco used to love to stand in the wild daisies mama told me so we picked a few to put in our wild lavender we have been picking and drying. The very first time I was ever at the pond last year I brought some to mama and she called me her medicine dog so this year we have been picking it because it is growing everywhere at the pond. Mama says my brain is slowly growing! She always calls me her sweet boy and I love that. She knows now why the name Sugar stuck because I am her sweet boy! Today while we walked home from the pond, 3 boys asked mama what my name was. They laughed when she told them Sugar and asked what my real name was!! Mama said that was my real name because I'm so sweet then she laughed while we walked away. Mama here. Everyday keeps getting better with this sweet boy. He is still sometimes naughty and very silly but he's been the best heart healer I could have asked for. Some pics for good measure.    |

Hi DT! Mama told me Uncle Doc was asking about me so it's time for me to check in. I was sad when mama and dad went away to do estate business and I peed on my uncles for fun. I haven't peed on anyone since because I know mama doesn't like that. Since Mama came back on March 17 she hasn't gone to work since! We spend everyday together now because I'm her coworker. We do zoom meetings all day. We have interviewed some new staff on zoom. Sometimes I stick my face in the camera because all the people laugh and call my name but usually I take a lot of breaks and try not to bark. But we have been getting so many Amazon packages. I have to bark to let mama know the doorbell rang just in case she didn't hear it! Mama told me my brain seems to be growing! Its still small but we will get there she says. I love to cuddle with mama. When I get to sleep in bed with her on my blanket I have to sleep right beside her with at least my head on her. And I love when dad comes home from work because I always have to sit with him! We've been having a heat wave. So when we come home from going to the pond I have to lay on the tiles to cool off! Mama here...this sweet boy has been so well behaved during the work days. Around 4pm he starts to get antsy and tells me its been enough zoom meetings for the day lol. He doesn't like when I go out without him and will gently grab my wrist or my purse. I'm trying to go out for a little bit every few days even if it's for a drive around the neighborhood because one day I will be going back to the office.     |

He's starting to think with a tiny bit of logic! YAY! He did not pee on his aunt when she was over but he stole everything around so she would chase him around the house. Including the toilet paper while auntie was in the bathroom . I will be surprised if anyone will look after him again until he is a senior!!

Hi DT!! Sugar here. Its been a long time. Hope you are all staying home and staying safe. Mama and Daddy had to go away for 10 days and I had sleepovers at my uncle's and my best friend, Juliet's house. My aunt also stayed with me at my house for the last few days. I was quite naughty while mama was away and peed on both of my uncles. Since mama has been home I have not done that again because she wouldn't like that. Since mama has been home she hasn't left the house to go to work. She works from home everyday and I love it! Dad worked from home for 3 weeks but now he's back at work in his office. Mama works in the tv room on our big red couch because I stay quiet that way. She tried to work at her desk but she said I bugged the **** out of her so now our office is in the tv room .Mama takes pics of me during the day and posts them on Instagram of us "working" because I'm her coworker now.    Mama says I'm a good boy for not barking while she's on telephone or zoom conferences. Sometimes I do stick my face in the computer when she's on zoom and everyone laughs. Mama here...I sure missed this boy while I was away but now I spend everyday with him so it makes up for the time spent apart. His brain may have grown another wee bit. He tries to use his brain. I see it. He is still a very sweet, lovable boy who has helped me so much with my grief from Coco (whose birthday happens to be coming up on April 16  )Hope you are all staying safe and we get through this thing together! |

Well, it's wintering here (20 degrees with blowing snow), so think of me as you're lounging in the sunshine!  Have fun! (I'm gonna just pretend I carried your luggage and I'm relaxing in the warm sunshine, LOL!)

Thank you Lannie. We have been going fast and furiously while we are here but we've gotten a lot accomplished so it has been good. We are going to Barbados tomorrow for 4 days to rest and relax and have a mini vacation. I have enjoyed being in dresses and shorts and not worrying about snow and cold! And there's no coronavirus here! |

I miss him a lot! I can't wait to get home to that naughty, mischievous lovebug! I will be sure to get him to give an update when I am back next week. Well, at least Juliet will keep him distracted from missing his mama too much. I can't wait to hear about his "vacation." (And your trip, too! PLEASE, I want to hear about something warm! LOL!) Edit: Oh, wait, "settle estate" just sank into my walnut sized brain. I'm so sorry. My condolences to you both.  |

I just had a moment of shock--I mean, I knew this already, but it hadn't quite sunk in--Sugar is not a baby puppy anymore! He's all growed up now. well, maybe not his brain, but the rest of him is. I still think of him as a little guy. Anyway, that sweet look of love--maybe we need that as a calendar category. |
