The dogs I have seen in the last few years that show how lazy the owners are in my own S&B front yard. The ones that have amazed me beyond belief were a few who were being walked and their people stopped to talk to someone and the dogs would either drop down on the chests and haunches or lay flat on the ground in the heel position, they don't move until they receive a little tug on the leash. The others that walk in the heel position and carry their leash in their mouth. Those dogs were energetic, playful, loved to run or swim but needed nothing more than a single word or gesture to return to the heel position. Their people were pretty interesting too.
