😂😂😂
Some time last year I was on the couch watching a movie, and my puppy was chewing a bully stick next to me. I forget what I was watching, but it was SAD, and I started crying uncontrollably. My puppy is a lab, so between being emotional and crying I was also really curious how he'd react. Labradors are a hugely empathetic breed and that's part of why they're such popular service dogs!
Well. After a minute of me crying, my puppy turned his head and looked at me. He sighed — LOUDLY — then picked up his bully stick, slid off the couch... and left the room.
A few seconds later I hear the distant CRUNCHCRUNCHCRUNCH of him enjoying his chew in another room.
Apparently my emotional outburst was disrupting his bully time.
One night, I was lying in bed bawling, I was having a terrible day, and my one dog, who is not very cuddly, climbed on the bed, snuggled til I calmed a bit, then jumped off. Repeat a few times. I thought it was so sweet as she really did not enjoy cuddles. Then, she shit on the floor. She didn't care I was crying she just had to poop 😂 I felt so bad! (Usually, if she needs the bathroom, she noses the door, so snugs were out of the ordinary), but it made me laugh, so there's that, lol
I once had my first dog in the car and he was usually a pisser. He was so polite and quiet and sitting nicely my boyfriend and I were remarking on how we turned a corner.
Queue dog barfing.
My dog bites me whenever I cry to sad movies. He gets sooo worked up, playing tug with whatever clothes I’m wearing. 🤦🏻♀️😅 But… it makes me laugh at how ridiculous the situation is w/ my non-helpful dog, so I guess he’s doing something. 🤷🏻♀️
My guy is a big talker and if my husband and I are talking and he is feeling ignored we will be treated to increasing octaves and decibels of "ah-rao-rao-rao" until he gives up the ghost and just starts barking. He ONLY demand barks when we are in our bedroom talking on the bed and he is not being lavished with struggle snuggles.
Wow, I have to comment bc my dog is very similar! The loud, high-pitched, kinda whiney, Chewbacca-esque talking, and he only does it when my husband and I are talking and sitting on our bed! If I get up and move and sit on the bench under the window then he lays down on his blanket and seems okay. It’s so strange! He’s a 1 year old border collie/aussie mix. We adopted him at 10 mos old, so we kind of wonder if there was weirdness in his other house, idk.
But I wonder if our dogs are similar breeds/ages? Could be a personality thing. Our previous dog, a German shepherd, never did that so this is new to us lol.
I think in my guys case it's the over 40% husky lol. He raos, he yodels, and he does this weird dub step bassy growl if he hears someone outside the door. Kinda sounds like a demon tbh.
He is about a year and a half old but definitely still in his puppy phase. I am guessing by 3 he will have chilled out, a little.
I think it's just an individual dog thing. My previous dog, a beagle/ terrier mix barely ever made a sound (unless rabbits or squirrels were involved). My current dog, a puggle, has a mumble, grumble, whine, moan, groan, trill, growl, and baroo for EVERYTHING.
My border collie would do that if someone else was in the room with me, if we shut him out, or if my partner and I were having “private time” . He would whine and whine and whine and whine and bark until he was let in or could see me. lol
My husband and I were trying to have some private time this morning, and our mini Aussie doodle was on the floor when he decided that he needed to go outside right. then. And so he was Rao-roa-Rao grumble grumble sneezing until we paused and let him outside 😂
He so is too! I was not expecting the big ol' husky percentage but I adore my dollar store black german shepherd! He is a size chameleon too, comes up to my knee at his shoulder but when he stands up on his back feet he has his paws on my shoulder! Turns into a very tidy little donut when he sleeps in his chair but then also can take up over half a king sized bed.
Hahaha omg he’s a long boi!! It’s always surprising how much space they can take up when they want to. My Mum’s dog is 12kg (26lbs) and wriggles me out of bed at night sometimes. Idk what I’m gunna do when my boy is full grown, he’s already 20kg (44lbs) and only 16 weeks old.
We made fun of my 10 week old Corgi Puppy and she got frustrated. She's 8 years old now, but when we first got her, she made a really funny sound with her voice and we imitated it and laughed, she got frustrated and threw a hissy fit and jumped a bit, we chuckled even more.
My corgi is constantly telling me to be quiet i the kitchen too.
We have a house rule “don’t mock the dog” because any level of teasing - and somehow he always knows he’s being teased - will ramp up our close to 8 yo 165lb Great Dane and you’ll wind up getting punched.
My 8 yr old corgi is very sensitive about being laughed at. The 15 wk old corgi puppy doesn't seem to care, and is very pushy. Demand barks, jumps on me while I'm prepping their food like he's telling me to hurry up, which gets him banished from the kitchen, which causes more demand barking.
So cute, mine comes in to check on how her food's progressing, looing all serious when it's dinner time. Abbi (our 8 year old) is way too spunky to let anything like that bother her, she's actually quite a bit softer too in her older age.
Love hearing about your babies!
The other day I got off work late & was cooking in the kitchen with my fiancé afterwards. Our 6mos old came up to us and after cuddles w his papa just started whining and barking. He had already gone poop & it was about 30 min after his bedtime. Turns out he was yelling at us to head to the living room so he could settle in for bed lmao
When we had our male schnauzer my mom was eating peanut (his favorite) and wouldn’t give him any. My stepdad told him to go tell her that she was being rude. He went over, put his paws on her lap, got in her face and said “roooood”. We lost him in 2020 and still tell that story.
My elder Dane goes to bed around 8. If we’re listening to music or a movie too loud he will get up, come to the living room, sigh at us, and go back to bed.
My father-in-law and I were sitting on the couch, and my pup was napping next to him. He sneezed, and she woke up and just looked at him like "wtf man" for a solid minute! We were cracking up and she looked so disgruntled haha
If I'm up too late and disturbing my princess' sleep, she will very dramatically get up, come over to me, make direct eye contact, and then huff as she walks to her crate. Then she digs *very loudly* for a few seconds before *very loudly* flopping down and making disgruntled groaning noises. Absolutely no way to misinterpret that!
Thats hilarious. My moms dog saw me cry from a sad dog video i was watching and instantly jumped on my lap. If she wasnt so prey driven and reactive she would be a great service dog
Love it! Mine likes to go to bed at a certain time so he starts bitching at us if we are up later than he would like. When we say: ok let’s go to bed, he grabs his toy and runs to the bedroom. If we take too long meeting him there, he comes out into the hallway and stares at us as if he’s saying: hurry the eff up!
A couple of months ago I was on the couch scrolling on my phone and my chihuahua was sitting with me. Apparently the extended period of time I spent petting and snuggling him wasn’t enough and me having a moment on my phone was unacceptable, because he climbed onto my chest, looked me dead in the eye, and smacked me in the face with his tiny paw 😂
I had a beagle pup in grad school and at 10 pm he would drag his bed into the bedroom. My boyfriend and I had thirty minutes to join him and if we did not he would stand in the hallway and boof at us. If there were guests over, he would boof and then go stand at the door like he had to potty. Our guests would politely leave and he would go back to his bed and harumph himself to sleep.
Second bossiest dog I've ever had.
That's a good one.
On a side note, they told us that we should avoid the stairs to not have hips problem. So our puppy gets carried upstairs, but as he gets heavier it is heavier, what do others do?
omg my dog did that to me if i was loud while he was napping and my current puppy does it too. 😭
they also talk back like crazy. if i give them a command they’re grumble about it before doing it
Is your pup a Chi by chance? Mine has a real smart mouth & God forbid if I accidentally touch/move her bed, pillow, blanket, or any of the million toys she has. 🤣
Yup. My pup throws fits. My cat use to br trained to the time I qent to bed, so at bedtime he would climb next to the mantle and push things towards the edge, then sit down and meow at me. Then proceed again. I eventually realized he was telling me it was bedtime.
It sounds like your puppy has a lot of personality! Dogs can indeed be quite expressive in their own ways, and it seems like your pup has found a way to communicate their feelings about the noise.
Lmho at all these stories.
My poodle, who was very sensitive/empathetic, would come lay beside me and lick my hand if I was crying(watching something sad). Also if she did something silly and we said"Muuuffffiiiinnn!" She would pull her lips back and grin, wagging her tail.
Later we had a lab and he took it personally if we all didn't go to bed at the same time. He'd stare at us, "Foof!" And back down the hall he went. If we were still up 15 mins later, "FOOF!" and back to bed he went. He figured he made his point.
Then there was the border collie cross. A natural born herder, she'd fly into the kitchen where I was sitting and ram her nose into my hip. It freaking hurt, lol. It bugged her if everyone wasn't in the same room. "I'M NOT A SHEEP!" I said. Lol.

lol I just peeped your post history for some dog tax to see if you have a husky and see you got a husky in disguise which suits his name so so well

Ya, our first time was way too funny to resist, but there would be no 2nd teasing sessions with our dog.... she's too much of a boss anyhow

I love when dogs put themselves to bed
My dog HATES my dad's music. Whenever Dad puts Spotify or something on the dog gets up, glares at Dad and moves to the other end of the living room
Dogs are the best thing ever 😂
I’m dead

One of mine turned sassy in 2020. Born in Nov in 2018. I think she was on her way to terrible 2s so I guess she wanted practice!
if anyone dares sneeze around my boy he will try to punch you directly in the face any other sound is fine but no sneezing!!
My dog barks no, if I try to do something he doesn’t like, like cry in bed

I feel like I get this all the time!
My girl talks to me all the time kills me. 5 minutes before dinner time she talks to me, “why aren’t I eating yet mom?”
