MIND GAMES DOGS PLAY WITH THEIR HUMANS

Diese kleine Sammlung tragen Kerstins Heeler Friends momentan in ihrer Facebook-Gruppe zusammen.

Es scheint, als wären wir Hunde international alle irgendwie miteinander verbunden.. Zumindest gab es bisher für jede neue "Beobachtung" breite Zustimmung von den vielen anderen Heeler Besitzern :-)

Kommt euch auch etwas bekannt vor?

Leider nur auf Englisch, aber sicher recht gut verständlich, oder?

 

After your humans give you a bath, don't let them towel-dry you! Instead, run to their bed, jump up and dry yourself off on the sheets. This is especially good if it's right before your humans bedtime.

Act like a convicted criminal. When the humans come home, put your ears back, tail between your legs, chin down and act as if you have done something really ...bad. Then, watch as the humans frantically search the house for the damage they think you have caused (Note: This only works when you have done absolutely nothing wrong).

Let the humans teach you a brand new trick. Learn it perfectly. Then the humans try to demonstrate it to someone else, stare blankly back at the humans. Pretend you have no idea what they're talking about.

Draw attention to the human. When out for a walk always pick the busiest, most visible spot to go poop. Take your time and make sure everyone watches. This works particularly well if your humans have forgotten to bring a plastic bag.

When out for a walk, alternate between choking and coughing every time a strange human walks by.

Make your humans be patient. When you go outside to pee, sniff around the entire yard as your humans wait. Act as if the spot you choose to go pee will ultimately decide the fate of the earth.

'Let off' loudly, while standing next to your human, and then resist the urge to sniff your own butt, instead air sniff near your human's butt (works better if you are a big dog- but littl'uns can get the same effect by utilising the 'meerkat' stance). Alternatively, wait until you are in a crowded enclosed space (full car/ kitchen at a party etc.) and 'let off' silently (but fragrantly) and slink away quietly so your human will get the blame.

When your human calls you to come back in, always take your time. Walk as slowly as possible back to the door
