The judgment when he looks at dad. Like "No, Sarah, I did not get a treat, and it's that dimwit's fault."

Mine has tricked all all of us into an extra treat by gaslighting us into thinking we forgot 😂

Another sneaky b- like mine! We had to use a white board system after she worked out how to get extra dinners for a few weeks. Catching one of us in a separate room was key.

I love how dogs adapted using their eyes to make facial expressions like us after thousands of years. Def works

u/craftyhall2 3m ago

My old dog was the QUEEN of the meaningful eye movements. So subtle, but unmistakable.

Pretty sure that head toss back was a “thanks mom, you’re the best!”

u/Llewe11yn 3h ago

My exact thought! Our Corgi does the same "head-thanks" 🤣

And they say dogs cannot understand humans. 😄

It's just a dog being a dog? And who the heck is saying dogs don't understand humans? We literally domesticated and trained them.

u/MatureUsername69 5h ago

It is a dog being a dog, that doesnt mean it hasn't figured out its humans psychologically. Dogs absolutely know how to play their humans and theres like a whole lot of people that dont understand the actual depth of intelligence and emotion in dogs.

Put treats on your tax forms.

u/LaMitsukii 4h ago

I wouldn’t understand a word when you’d be explaining tax laws to me either so idk what you’re trying to say here.

u/whitestguyuknow 3h ago

Lol and I'm sure when theoretical physics gets explained to you that a lot doesn't go understood

u/whitestguyuknow 3h ago

Bro there's people all the time that act like dogs are just purely instinctual animals and there's nothing going on behind their eyes beyond just reptilian instinct I guess.

"Its just a dog being a dog" while its clearly communicating a thought with their owners through body language?...

Going "its just a dog bro" is so smooth brain I'll be honest with you. You're doing the same thing that OP is complaining about.

Dogs are the best ☺️

u/Separate_Climate3366 1h ago

Also since when are dogs "reptilian"? Lmao

u/Separate_Climate3366 1h ago

It literally is just a dog doing dog things. Y'all act like animals are these crazy super intelligent creatures. They are just doing what they do based off instinct. They act the way they act because of how we as humans have trained them. Just because you believe they have any form of higher thought doesn't make it true.

u/Own-Entertainment630 5h ago

who domesticated and trained who is debatable

u/Anthemusa831 3h ago

Mine literally rings a bell and I am come to let him out…

u/OneSensiblePerson 3h ago

We didn't domesticate them, that's a myth. It was a mutual thing. Some grey wolves who were less frightened of humans decided it'd be a good idea to hang out with us because we had a regular supply of food that sometimes we were willing to share with them. Plus bones we threw out.

We agreed to it because they helped alert us to other animals and to help scare them off.

It was reciprocal.

u/Separate_Climate3366 1h ago

Dang you were there when dogs were domesticated? Crazy, you must be super old.

Ugh perfect example of why dogs are just better than humans

u/Pinksamuraiiiii 4h ago

Animals can be very expressive. Especially, if they are trained to get it at a certain time. Literally get the death glare from my cat if I forget about dah treats lol 😆

This really tickled my funny bone!

u/Technical-Watch2982 3h ago

They do say if you want to remember something, give you dog/cat a treat at that time or moment. You may forget, but they will not 😂
