Let's Play

Emme, like many puppies, does a "play bow" when she wants to play. She puts her chest on the floor and lifts her bottom up in the air. She has done this since she was little.

Recently, she has created another sign when she wants to play. She scratches with her back legs. She looks at you with a gleam in her eyes and scratches her back legs out from her body. I don't know where this behavior came from or if other dogs do it as well. But I do know that it means "Let's play." She couldn't be more clear if she could say the words.
