Pets Lying Belly Up
Adorable Pets on Their Backs
Did you read our recent article by Dr. Patty Khuly about dogs sleeping belly up? Based on your Facebook comments about that story, it sounds like many of your dogs (and cats!) are relaxed, easygoing pets who love snoozing on their backs. Your four-legged friends look so cute with their paws in the air we couldn't resist showing off some of our favorites.

What's this handsome pup dreaming about? Chasing squirrels? Going on a walk? We have no idea, but she sure looks snug on the couch.

Tiger confirms that sleeping belly up is not only comfy, it's practical. Tummies are a great place to keep toy mice while sleeping.
