Forum Rules | 1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect. 2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff. 3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned. 4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule. |

| Nanook has started this funny thing were when he is playing he swings around and hits you with the side of his butt. It is the funniest thing I have ever seen. It seems to be replacing the bitting...which is fine by me lol...is there a reason behind this behavior, just curious. |

| It's a Hip Check. Totally normal way to play. It provides them with protection from an incoming "bite" while still allowing them to push or off balance the person or dog they are paying with. Think of it as a Polite way of playing for dogs . ~Chris~ _________________ Is this about the cake problem? What's the matter with you mathematicians, cake is never a problem. - Professor Lazlo

| My Nanook does the same thing... He also "shoulder checks". Mostly see this when he's playing with other dogs, but occasionally I can get him to do it with me when I really get him wound up and he's got the puppy zoomies... |

| It is funny when they miss! Nanook is like half ninja when he does it..he sometimes jumps and twist at the same time and when he misses he lands on his side, looks confused for a minute with the " WTF" look ...gets up and tried again. |

| Bode is a big hip checker. He also likes to go full body slam. Not many other digs appreciate it very much! |
