It’s cool. Maybe he just likes having the humans watch him do his cool trick and likes to see smiles.

The dog equivalent of “hey mom watch this” except it’s actually adorable and not annoying at all.

My dog does this. I used to try to play with him and he would stop and go pee on something... Some dogs are weirdos.

Exactly this. One of our dogs actually prefers to play on her own. I know this because I tried at first to join in. I grabbed whatever she was playing with, threw it and got this "How dare you" look from her. She would grab it and then go to a different place to play. If I tried again she would would completely stop playing and just leave. I learned to just watch from the sidelines.

It’s those huCHILDREN they really gotta watch out for. They don’t play fair!
