I'll start off with this one of Princess showing excellent form in the classic Roach with a Half Twist. I'm not sure of the degree of difficulty here, but any Olympic judges out there feel free to chime in. Very Happy



Carly's a good roacher too, but is soooo camera shy. I'm still trying for one of her. Ok, your turn!!!

Princess tail curl adds to the difficulty of her roach so she gains points for that. But Deniros head off the bed roach is pretty impressive too.

Posting this for Dan and Totty Roberts. Their boy Julius comfy on the couch and in fine form:




Gotta love that straight up rigid tail! I noticed Deniro's was like that in at least one shot. Too cute!

Lots of Roachers come through here as fosters and mine also like to relax but, catching them with the camera is tricky.

Here are a few:

This is Chloe, the Border Collie who thinks she is a greyhound


This is Isabeau in her crate. I think this one is disqualified due to the fact that she is using the crate as a prop.



This one is Fargo, he was a foster who now lives in Summerfield.
He has wonderful form but also using the aid of something holding him up. I will leave it up to the judges, but does he get credit for the half twist !!

Maddie is a roacher as well (we call it doggie ballet at our house) however, every time I get the camera out to get a picture of it she stops.

Definitely movie star quality! I love it! Um, didn't he do another movie called "The Full Monty"? Laughing

Thanks so much for sharing him with us!

Love all the roach pics -- Larson only roached a very few times in his life.

Here is Mia in a full roach perfect with the uncomfortable head position and all!


And here is Iceman, my other roachin fool. He prefers the curled up roach position. Laughing

Carly does the same thing! I thought I had her last night -- I was soooo quiet reaching for the camera. She appeared to be deeply asleep -- mouth open, tongue protruding ... and then she opened her eyes and flopped over on her side before I could fully depress the shutter. It's like she can feel the eye of the camera on her or something Shocked .

Debbie, I think Chloe is a wonderful roacher! I wish I could catch Maggie in a roach. She only does it in the morning so I can scratch her belly.
