![]() It wasn’t until October 2013 that I captured the underhand rollover ninja attack move on video. I’ve been pounced on innumerable times by a prostrate pooch. Growing up and wrestling with dogs, I suspected the rollover was a way to lure me into relaxing for a moment and putting my guard down.

On super slow motion review, most rollovers were a way to avoid bites to the neck or a wily attack launch. This led the scientists to speculate that rollovers were a part of a more complex play process or simply a sneaky skirmish stratagem (alliteration again…sorry). So what causes a rollover? Rollovers occurred more frequently the longer two dogs played together in this study. Smaller dogs didn’t stay in a rollover position longer than bigger dogs.Smaller dogs weren’t found to rollover more frequently.In other words, big dog-little dog interactions had the same frequency of rollovers as big:big or little:little. The size differential between dogs did not influence rollover frequency.They observed a few interesting findings: Researchers wanted to scientifically establish if the rollover move was a submissive signal or a combat maneuver. I’ll save you a trip to the dictionary and remind you that a dyad is a group of two. I think.Īccording to Kerri Norman, and the other authors of the study, domestic doggie dyads were secretly filmed while engaged in play. After analyzing countless hours of videos, the researchers concluded that rolling over was actually a very slick combat tactic. Leave it to modern researchers to question this age-old wisdom and threaten to turn the canine behavioral world upside down, not to mention threaten countless relationships, including mine. These are commonly thought of as submissive postures or signals. I remember when I first met my wife I hit the ground groveling and have remained there for almost 30 years. Most of you have heard that a dog rolling over on its back is indicating, “I give up.” Many have witnessed two dogs meeting for the first time and one of the two instantly drops to the ground, belly up. What may be caninedom’s greatest secret is out: Rolling over is the new ninja. Based on a new study published in the journal “Behavioral Processes,” our dogs may have been following Sun Tzu’s advice when it comes to rolling over. At least four behavioral researchers disagree. ![]() ![]() In Naruto Shippūden the Movie: The Will of Fire, Ni had two ninken-like beasts at her disposal, that appear to have been mutated through the Chimera Technique.“Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.” Those words were written over 2,000 years ago by Sun Tzu in “The Art of War.” Like most veterinarians, I was taught that whenever dogs rolled over, they were being submissive. Appropriately enough, children use this design as the face for their scarecrows, which is " kakashi" in Japanese. They all have a face-shaped design on their backs called Henohenomoheji ( へのへのもへじ) - which is the sound made when all the characters in the face are put together. ![]() With this technique, the dogs can travel through the ground following the scent of their target, emerging when the target is found and holding them in place. He can also summon them for special purposes, like he does with his Summoning: Earth Release: Tracking Fang Technique. He can summon them separately, as he commonly does so with Pakkun, or all together. They are supposed to be quite dangerous in combat, as Kakashi notes in the anime that they can tear their opponents apart on his command. Kakashi's ninken have shown the ability to use human language, walk on water, develop combat strategies, and track down targets through their enhanced smell. Although the dogs belonging to the members of the Inuzuka clan are ninken, the phrase is usually used in reference to the pack of eight ninken summoned by Kakashi Hatake. Ninken ( 忍犬, English TV: Ninja Hounds, literally meaning: Ninja Dogs) are essentially dogs that have heightened senses and abilities, and as such, are able to work and be summoned alongside shinobi.
