stupid pet tricks

[Guest]

I have noticed a lot of us mention our pets here or have animal avitars. I thought I would share one of my dogs stupid tricks. Her name is Talulah Bankhead. After the actress because she is an actress. She plays dead, all 4's in the air, head to the side eyes closed. we say poor Talulah and proceeded to give her a eulogy with fake tears etc. If one of the other dogs barks or we try to skip or shorten it we get a little growl and she opens up one eye to say not finished yet. It is hilarious. She is a black lab. I would love to hear of any of your pets special talents. I have one that is a wine snob, he can tell a good chardonnay from a bad one. will only drink the good one. His vet says he can have 1oz. a week Go figure

Oh S~

That is too funny.

Our runt black cat "Minky" died 2 yrs ago. No pets but have 2 little ones who are begging for a pet. They are still too young and I know I'll be taking care of it. So no funny pet tricks-just pet clipart!

Sea, He looks like geoge burns. Love it. I know what you mean with the cat. My daughters Huband wanted a cat and said he would take care of it. Well my daughter is taking care of it that husband dosen't do a thing and he's 33. I think your kids may be more mature. (I'm just lovin' me some son -in law ..cough ..cough ..hurl)

All my dog does is eat his own poop and dig dirty underwear out of the laundry.
Sigh...

I also have a dog named after a star...he is called Edward Woodward ('you little buggar' for short!!!) and is an American Staffy crossed with a hippopotamus!!!!
His 'tricks' are nowhere near as refined as Tallulahs, but rather must have gone to soccermoms dogs school of etiquette...he loves to munch on freshly laid horse poop (I think it's the canine equivalent of a spinach muffin!) and anything else that's going spare....something tells me that he has 'goat' as part of his noble heritage, he'll eat celery, raisins, olives, earplugs!......anything!!
His other 'tricks' include magically turning one of your favourite shoes into a jigsaw in the back garden, and digging potholes by the washing line for me to fall down when I go out in the dark......He acts a little like he has just had a rather hefty dose of speed all the time....VERY boisterous!! Other dog owners think he is Satans spawn, as his idea of socialising with other canine chums is to barrel into them at 100kms and hour and then jump on their heads...we have to keep him on a lead whenever there is another dog around as we have been training him with the help of an assortment of trainers, behaviourists, videos and books for nearly two years, and still cannot get him out of the habit of believing that every encounter is a bout of WWF!!!!!

Where's Doctor Dolittle when you need him??

No doggies here at the moment, although the golden retriever who will be returning here in a few weeks doesn't eat her own poop, but seems quite fond of everyone else's--we have had to be quite clever with the kitty litter boxes... That and thinking that she is really a lap dog at 75 lbs. is her repetoire of tricks. I think she has separation anxiety disorder and needs both medication and therapy.

I do have a cat who is a fat little thing (nicknames: Jabba the Hut and BuddhaKitty), who will sit up and beg for treats. Aside from kitty fare, she will also eat avocado and little peanut butter suet treats that I buy for the birds outside. I am thinking that if I ever get a treadmill, I will try to train her to run on the treadmill for treats.

I once had a cat, Celia, who I trained to poop on the potty. Nice kitty! That went south, though, once I got some big house plants.....

Uh oh, the Buddha is here now; I think she heard me!
