A pile of sleeping Shelties

I think they are born an upside down dog or not. Fil started sleeping that way as a baby and still does. None of my other boys ever slept belly up.
I agree...Piper slept like this as a pup but stopped, Finnie never really did. We’ll see if it continues, I guess she sleeps with such abandon because she’s such an incredibly busy girl when she’s awake! If I’m home she rarely has a nap now.
 
Della is the only one of mine who sleeps like that and I just figured it was because she's had puppies and it was probably the most comfortable way to sleep with a big belly. Kismet sleeps in a ball (Deska used to sleep like that too). According to my mum, Tully sleeps like a panda, not that she's seen ever seen a panda sleep and I'm pretty sure the red panda that mum thinks Tully looks like sleep in trees. Tully sleeps with her head rested on her front paws.
