Roaching

The first time Dad saw me “roaching” he laughed so hard and took a bunch of pictures and put them on the Facebook. Other people laughed too and made comments, and “liked” it. Sometimes when I do it in the office, it looks like I just fell down next to the wall. It doesn’t hurt, it just looks really silly. Dad and I weren’t sure why I do that, so we got out the laptop and looked it up on the Google.

Turns out lots of greyhounds do that. The Google said it’s because we have really big chests and it’s comfortable to us. When we lie down, we try to dig up some space for our chests to rest comfortably. The Google says that it is called “roaching” because when we are doing it, we look like a dead cockroach. I’ve never seen a dead cockroach, so I’ll have to take the Google’s word on it. Do you think I look like a dead cockroach?

Either way, it’s pretty comfortable and I get good sleep that way. I usually have a big smile on my face. I give it 3.5 roos.
