I've posted before about Bailey's odd sleeping habits, whether it's snoozing with his mouth resting on a toy, or only having part of his body covered … and sometimes only his face. The other afternoon I saw him in the kitchen looking like this, and wondered once more: why?
Has he heard the line about how you lose most of your body heat from your head and taken it to heart?
Does his top half just get colder than his lower half? (If so … um, why?)
Was there something going on in the kitchen he'd rather not see?
Is it easier to fall asleep with your head covered?
Or is this just a fashion statement of some sort?
No other dog here, Dachshund or not-a-Dachshund, does this. It's a peculiarly Bailey habit. Your guess is as good as mine!
(Oh … if it looks like something is coming out his rear end in the
photo, no, that's just the tag from the West Paw bed that's turned up
in the corner. I did a double-take when I first loaded it on the
computer … what is that?)
