Strange things your pets do...

Put your wife and your dog in the trunk of your car and drive around for a while. Open the trunk and see which one is happy to see you.

You try this first and let us know how it works out.

After 50 plus years of marriage, I have an uncanny intuition for knowing what works and what doesn't. This is significantly high on the "Won't Work" scale.

When he's watch me work the door is open. He can get out any time that he wants. Sometimes he does, sometimes he doesn't.

Over the years I have had several friends that had dogs that they told be to be careful when I drove up, honk the horn and wait for them to come and get the dog before I get out, because the dog may bite me if I get out of the truck. In all cases, I drove up, opened the truck door and asked the dog if it wanted to go for a ride? The dog would hop in with me, I'd close the door, honk the horn and drive out of the driveway with their dog. :laughing: I'd drive out to the end of their lane, turn around, drive back in and let their vicious guard dog out as they came out of the house. They'd just shake their heads.

Dogs love trucks!

My border collie growls at me when she want attention or food. Not in a mean way at all. Somehow she doesnt know how to whimper and whine.

Our shepherd will look at me, bounce around and yip. Gets more demanding the longer I ignore her. Louder yips and more frequent.

I'll finally look at her and say "what!!!! Why are you being so demanding??". Thats when she turns around and backs her booty up to me for butt scratches

Neighbor had a Siberian Husky that used to come visit. Every now and then she would wait by my truck. She would wait till I opened the door and she would shove me aside and bail into the truck. And refuse to get out.

I would then drive around the block, and let her out at her house. After the first time, I figured out that she was being lazy and didn't want to walk home

So if I saw her sitting by the truck, I would ask if she was ready to go home. She would start nosing the door to the truck and dancing. So I would go get the keys, and let my wife know I was taking Peanut home.

Her owner laughed his butt off one day when he saw me drop her off, and I told him what she was doing

Beagle Bailey never became comfortable riding in the truck. Our mistake was not taking him with us all the time. His first road trips were to the Vet so he never got over the nervousness of traveling. He does like to ride around the yard when I'm plowing snow though.

We've got one cat that's terrified of the cat carrier and hides as soon as he hears anything that sounds like it. Our other cat will hop right in it if we don't keep it closed. When either of my kids come to visit with their cats, they open their cat carriers, their cat runs out and our cat runs in. Pretty comical.

We had a dog that loved to hop into our bronco and lay on the back bench seat. First time i noticed, i'd been cleaning it out and left the door open to dry. A few hours later, i kinda wondered where one of the dogs was, hadn't seen her around for a bit. Thought i'd go ahead and close the door on the bronco and saw her laying on the seat. It was hot day and felt very hot inside the rig felt like at least 100 F inside. There she was just snoozing, i called her out and she just got up and stretched then hopped out of the rig.

^^^^^^ Sounds like a very close call. Glad you found her and didn’t just shut the door and walk off.

The clerk at my local Post Office has a 3 month old Lab which she keeps behind the counter with her. My box is down low, and yesterday I was emptying it and tossing it out on the floor for disposal; "Junk" (my weekly DirectTV ad) "Trash" (The bill for insurance on my snowsled which I had cancelled because I sold it 2 months ago).
I reached way to the back to make sure I hadn't missed anything; and grabbed a furry nose, as a wet tongue started licking my hand. :laughing: I said "this isn't junk!!!

Hahahaha, Only in the Country!

I have bottom P.O. box but I never get a dog nose in it. That would be much better than the junk mail I toss in the recycling can. :laughing:

Me...knowing my wife now about 50 years I can tell you what would happen. First she would wrap the lug wrench around my neck, then she would shove the jack right up my, did I mention we don't have a dog?

If you don't have a dog, where will they find your body? I spend a lot of time in our dog house.

Not one of my pets but a young coyote learned a valuable lesson this morning. I have a ten acre lake just off my front porch. Right now it's ice covered with 6" of fresh snow and it's still snowing. I know that the ice is around 1/2" thick - or less. The young coyote ventured out on the lake - a short cut - going across rather than going all the way around. He got out about 25' to 30' and the ice must have either cracked or started to break up under his weight and the weight of the new fallen snow. He turned tail and it looked like a 4-legged buzz saw. He stood on the shore quite a while looking back out on the lake - where he had been. Picture off my front porch. Summer & winter.
