Anas also reports, "Whenever Rasulullah shook hands with anyone or whenever anyone shook his hands, he would never pull away until the person pulled his own hand away first. He would also not turn away from a person he was facing (when speaking) until the person himself turned away first. He was also never to be seen stretching out his feet towards a person sitting before him."


Ya'qub bin Sufyan, Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah, as quoted in Al Bidayah wan Nihayah (volume.6 pg. 39) Ibn Sa'd (volume.1 pg. 99) has reported a similar narration.

Taken from the 2nd volume of Hayatus Sahabah, pg. 550 chapter concerning the character of the Sahabah and their noble traits

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا اسْتَقْبَلَهُ الرَّجُلُ فَصَافَحَهُ لَا يَنْزِعُ يَدَهُ مِنْ يَدِهِ حَتَّى
يَكُونَ الرَّجُلُ يَنْزِعُ وَلَا يَصْرِفُ وَجْهَهُ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ حَتَّى يَكُونَ الرَّجُلُ هُوَ الَّذِي يَصْرِفُهُ وَلمَْ
يُرَ مُقَدِّمًا رُكْبَتَيْهِ بَيْنَ يَدَيْ جَلِيسٍ لَهُ


Sayyidina Anas ibn Maalik (RA) reported that when the Prophet (SAW) was greeted by a
man, and shook hands with him, he did not remove his hands from the man’s until the
man removed his. And, he did not turn his face away from the man’s until the man
turned his. And he never sat with his legs stretched when he was among people.
[Abud Dawud 7494, Ibn e Majah 3716, Tirmidhi 2496]

Perhaps someone can verify the text, I don't know arabic, I just copy-paste.
