Think carefully before answering. If your dog uses a front paw to roll a ball, or flip their bowl, or get something out from under furniture, do they use their RIGHT paw or LEFT paw???

I'll comment for my mom's foster dog. She is super old and her back legs shake sometimes when she is just standing still, so she's right human handed...meaning either my mother or I get everything for her. LOL

I didn't know this was a thing. I really never paid attention. I will have to. I wonder if it's the same for cats?

First off, LOVE this question! I never really thought about it before. I may steal this topic from you for my Facebook friends. My dog is right pawed.

My dog is right pawed, if you ask for his left paw he gets annoyed.

I don't think I had ever thought of my dogs being "pawed" like we are "handed", lol. But, when I stop to think about it, she uses her right paw first, then her left if she still has trouble reaching something (generally food that has fallen under something). She's 11 years old too, so she's been at this for a while, lol.

...I don't really know, it seems like he uses them both pretty equally.
If I had to guess I'd say he favors his right paw slightly.
