[–]aussieaggietex 916 points 2 hours ago* Owner, here. The white lab's name is Baxter. I take him to the dog park all the time and he just learned that I couldn't go till his leash was in. My jaw dropped the first time he pulled it in himself. He obviously Isn't prepared to wait for Pluto to learn too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8IkCdR_SLls [Edit] Wow escher123, thanks for the gold! permalinksavereportgive goldreply [–]frankxanders 59 points an hour ago One of my dogs surprises me with what he knows. We trained them with verbal commands and hand signals. He figured out that some of the hand signals he can do himself. So he'll try to give me hand signal commands when he wants stuff. My other dog just pouts and makes squeaking sounds and that also usually gets her what she wants. permalinksaveparentreportgive goldreply [–]5in1K 131 points 2 hours ago Dogs are the best, smart ones even better.

My family was going for a picnic with our new dog. I was in the 4th grade and our puppy was pretty small, maybe a few months old. We all piled into the car and I had the dog in the back seat with my brother and me. We were sort of all in a rush and I didn't realize the leash was hanging out of the door when I closed it. The puppy was going nuts and got my legs all wrapped up in the leash inside the car. As my dad turned the corner, the end of the leash went under the back tire. The force of this must have been pretty crazy because it pulled the leash really hard. My leg slammed against the inside of the door. And broke instantly. I started screaming and of course no one knows what's happening. Dad stops the car and runs around. He sees the leash and immediately opens the door and starts trying to access the situation. The take me to the hospital where we're told my leg is broken in a few places. We explain what happened and suddenly I'm separated from my parents and being asked if I'm safe at home etc. I'm confused, but the gist is they didn't believe the story because it's so weird. My dad drove home, got the leash and brought it back to show it has crazy tire burn on it. They realize it's true and say it's sort of lucky it was my leg because other wise it would have been the dog's neck. FML. Anyhow, since that day I've been too paranoid to use anything but retractable leashes. I'm also massively paranoid about making sure nothing is ever left hanging out of car doors. I spent most of 4th grade in a series of casts starting with a full leg, then an up to the knee and it was awful. I didn't get to go trick or treating that year... Anyhow, sorry for the long ass story, but I just wanted to say your dogs are smarter than 4th grade me.
