HOWEVER, something interesting.... Catcher cannot stand to have his belly show. If I pick him up and he is facing forward, he will flip around and hug my neck like he is scared to death. If he wants me to rub his belly, he will only partially turn over at the chest area and leave the rest in a side position. I know he considers me his alpha because I can take even a favorite toy or Kleenex, etc. right out of his mouth without a problem, etc. He has a wonderful, calm disposition and is not at all feisty with me and is extremely obedient... just a great Malt... The only little quirk is that he doesn't like to expose his belly. He has been like that since day one.

Angus hates to have his belly touched.

He'll sleep on his back with his belly in the air, but no way will he ever let you rub his tummy! I have never seen a dog who didn't love tummy rubs!
