What is your dog not very good at?

As the title, what is your dog not very good at? By this i mean natural kinds of doggy behaviour and not in the training sense of the word.

For instance, young Master Tobester is not very good at scratching his ears

He gets into the seated postion, raises his leg at the correct angle to scratch and always scratches about 1/2 inch away from his ear, pawing away at the air Sometime I will get his back paw and scratch his ear for him, he looks quite surprised that the scratching motion can actually amount to anything!!

very funny.

Stumpy isn't very good at turning sharply at speed....I'm sure not having a tail affects her balance, but she is forever rolling over and over as she tries to turn.

I'm going to have to have a think about Hoki's

Mo is bad at cornering too, she goes too fast
She is also very bad at staying awake, I have never had such a lazy dog!

Star is absolutely abysmal at keeping in wind.

Charlie is poor at staying upright when anyone fusses him, he always ends up on his back.

Will have a think about the others!

Ice is not very good are knowing just how big and heavy he is, like tonight when he went to turn round, his big butt knocked into the dvd bookcase, knocking over my lovely 3ft fossil, which fell onto my nicely placed candles smashing them and the fossil onto the floor. Meeka had been stood just in front of the bookcase, but luckily for her she had jumped up onto the sofa seconds before (she knows to shift out the way quick when Ice stands up).

Aura is not very good at sleeping quietly.. she snores REALLY loud!

Bugzy and Meeka are not very good at being told to be quiet, their bark is really high pitched, and they bark every time someone comes in the door, even when they know it's us.
