The Roisty Roll, the optimum back scratch technique
Just back from an exciting walk-pull-sniffathon and feeling hot and dusty?
Coming off guard duty after chasing, barking and generally exhausting yourself to protect your territory?
Simply feeling happy with your lot?
What you need -and deserve- is a good back scratch!
Now, our assistants would be good back-scratchers when they can be bothered, but they are notoriously bad at finding time for this treatment, which ought to serve to demonstrate their affection and their gratitude for all that we do for them. Sidling up to them as they lounge on their sofas in front of the noise-box can achieve results, but their attention-span is short and their lack of dedication disgraceful.
Although opportunism is my second nature, I am also a realist. Self-help is often the best help.
My go-to solution is The Roisty Roll. This can be achieved outside on long grass or dry leaves; inside on any thick carpet. The technique is simple: fling yourself down on your back, then squirm and wiggle back and forth, legs in air. Keep it up for at least 30 seconds to one minute for optimum results.
When truly successful, The Roisty Roll comprises much twisting, wriggling and a great deal of groaning.
And loads of satisfaction.
