Your Sly Dogs

What the most amazing or shocking thing you've seen your hounds do..

being humorous

being clever

being mean

or just being downright HUMAN......

 

I've seen a lot of amazing stuff with my dogs. .but off the top of my head.

Mush Mouth has perched on the rim of the bath tub to poop into it when he had diarrhea.

He has stolen whole raw eggs off the counter and given 1 to Cadillac, kept one for himself. . didn't break either one. Took the whole top half of a sandwich once when i turned my head and ate it in less than 10 seconds before i turned back. pretended to be watching tv when i turned back. . no joke.

Once aurora was dry humping atlas and she farted. . it was pretty hilarious.

azure jumped over a 4 1/2 foot baby gate from a dead sit, amazing for a blue dog bred from 100lb stock lol.

Cadillac rolls her eyes if you tell her to do something she doesn't want to do.

There's a lot more if I thought hard about it.

Dogs can be amazing. .

 

We found my bitch standing on the kitchen counter licking pans i left out on the stove. It was in the middle of the night and she was about 8 months old. She knew she wasnt suppose to be up their when i came out she put her head down and slowly jumped off. Wife thought it was a burglar. Shes almost 2 better manners now

 

Begonia and I had come in from our evening walk, and she still had a lot of energy left in her, so I broke out the flirt pole and we started playing. I usually let her chase it for a minute or two and then let her bite and grab, and we'll tug for a few minutes. Then repeat. Anyway, about 45 minutes into it she started slowing down, and I guess she'd decided she'd had enough of chasing it, so she jumped up, grabbed it and then, when she landed she just dropped onto her belly on the floor, legs splayed out, flat as a pancake except for her head, she was still holding on to her toy LOL and whipping back and forth. My tired little puppy, all splayed out on the floor, head and neck up in the air, still gripping that toy ... I was amazed. We'd walked briskly for almost an hour before we'd come in to play, and she was 4 and-a-half months old.

Never seen a dog get tired and then hang on so tight before.

So there's that...

The APBT we had before, which passed away recently was a master of pattern recognition. I always got up, clipped on her leash, and then put my hat on before we'd go outside to potty. Well, one day I was on the sofa and she was kinda snoopin around the door, and I figured she needed to potty. I was about to get up, but my wife distracted me by asking me a question and that silly dog went and picked up her leash, and brought it to me and placed it on my hand LOL ... but I was still talking to my wife. "No problem!" she trotted over to the table, grabbed my hat off of it, and brought me my hat, and put it in my lap.

I laughed and laughed as we strolled happily outside. It was almost like:

"I want to go potty. But daddy needs the leash, that's why he's not paying attention. I'll get it for him. Wait a minute, something's still wrong, he's not getting up... Ummm ... OH YEAH! Gosh, why didn't I think of this before!? He needs his hat! That's right, his hat and the final piece of the puzzle will be in place! Once he has it, then we'll go!

I hate to humanize dogs, but I had to in that case, trying to figure out her thought process on that one was just too funny to resist.

 

In the early 90's I had a Mayfield dog called Buster who could smile on command....not the famous pit bull smile we all know....at the command "smile buster" mouth shut He would curl up His top lip and show His top row teeth, He would only do it for me, he was mad as a hatter but very smart He was a one man dog, I really miss that guy. I don't think ill ever have a dog like Him again He really was my best pal.

 

i always have the window on the drivers side open.and when the dogs go with me i dont have to open the door first.they jump right in.one of the neighbours at night closed my window because it looked like it was going to rain.next morning you guess it... open the front door and one of the dogs takes a sprint and bumped his head hard true the window.

from that point he always stops,looks and checks it first with his paw if its open.walks back and then takes a jump in to the car.

 

some dogs do really have that being a one man dog.was that dog self-assured or insecure ? had some insecure(in the house.not with working) dogs but they were really one man dogs.

 

He was the most self assured dog Ive ever known He was afraid of nothing, He only had one gear....that was full speed ahead!

 

i had a house dog that every time i had company and it was someone that i or he didn't trust, he would put his muzzle in their croch and growl whenever i left the room if they tried to move while i was gone. He would also open doors, and windows. He would lay on his back wagging his whole body if a dog was around and as soon as it was close enough to play,BAMM.

I had one dog that was protection trained that would lay in her cage like she was sleep. whenever i would let people in the door she would wait until they were right infront of her cage then go nutts. the first time a person would experience this I always smelled SH!T and their visits were very short... I thought it was hilarious

 

I bet you could toilet train that one.

My friend's dog crapped in his crate, but he couldn't find it. He finally just took the whole thing outside and found out the dog had crapped INSIDE a hole he had chewed in a basketball that was in his crate.:cool:

 

I always thought when a dog sniffs someones crotch they must be skipping their showers. I dont like when my dogs sniff a friend or relatives crotch i tell them straight up i got clean towels if they want to use the shower :eek:

 

my sly dog found her way home 8 months after being stolen.

 

The funniest thing I can think of right now is when China lets wind, she gets up, hangs her head and leaves the room. She waits a good 10 minutes before coming back, 20 if I tell her how bad it stinks.

 

Sometime's when I let Jada out of her kennel to run around and play, she'll turn over for a "belly rub" and gets so excited she pee's upwards like a fountain either onto herself or my shoes lol.

 

Nell, believe me, I've considered it. It wouldn't be hard.

Mush Mouth is very good with his pooping habits normally. . .

we have a bucket i scoop poop into in the yard, if its not full he will poop directly into it. If it is full he will poop in the bushes.

 

I have a kennel out back I will keep some younger pups in - in a kennel and on chain. There is a tool shed next to it and on the other side a large tree that hangs over and creates some shade for the pups. Birds and squirrels will hang out there and tease the pups sometimes - the pups will jump on their boxes and start barking at the squirrels and birds like crazy - stretching out against the kennel wall to get as close as they can. Well I woke up today and heard a pup howling and crying and I thought "dang - one of the pups climbed the kennel and is stuck on the chain outside the kennel unable to move after hopping out" - because one of them has been jumping and trying to climb out to get them lately. Well - I didn't see the pup on the ground in front of the kennel where she'd be if she climbed out and I didn't see her in the kennel. So - one of the other dogs was still barking and carrying on looking up at the tree and I look up and there is that female pup on top of the 10 foot tool shed pacing and crying and looking like she isn't havin fun anymore. She must have climbed up the corner of the kennel, perched herself in that corner and then jumped onto the roof of the kennel. If she could have found something higher to jump on from there I am sure she would've. Well that was what I woke up to this morning so I thought I would share it!

 

Hmmmm....I'd say of a few of my personal favorites would have to be with my old Staffie Bull/ APBT cross Brandi (she died a few years ago) :

One day my mom was home alone and she kept hearing the doorbell ring, so she went to the front door and nothing, she heard again, and yet again nothing or no one at the door. So finally when she heard it again she saw Brandi outside, jumping up and ringing the door bell. She wanted back in! She taught herself to ring the door bell when she wanted in. LOL

I was playin ball with her one day and in the middle of running back with the ball in her mouth, she squated down and took a piss.

My personal favorite with Beau my beagle would have to be when the guy was looking in my window and tried to open it, only to have a pissed off beagle trying to come at him through the window wanting to kill him. Beau don't take to kindly to men trying to come to see his mama or breaking in his house!

 

OOOO, i just remembered abother one with Jada, one day not too long ago she was pullin on the spring pole and started to poop as she was pulling, she wanted the rope so bad she just couldn't wait, She's definitely the weirdest dog i've ever owned but she's a bad little biatch lol

 

Lol I think your dog needs a nappy. j/k

 

Oreo operates the icemaker on the fridge with his paw. He then waits for one that strikes him and catches it - he doesn't usually eat ones that hit the floor - the others clean those up. We only had one other dog that learned to do that and sadly she isn't with us anymore.
