YDD has been housetraining her puppy. They've hung bells at the
back door and let her out when she rattles the bells.
Yesterday, when she sat down with the kids for lunch, she heard
the bells ring and got up to let the puppy out. As she
approached the door, puppy ran around her, got up on her chair
at the table and was reaching for YDD's lunch (the kids stopped
her).
This process was repeated with GS trying to let the puppy out.
They did physically place her outside for the rest of lunchtime.

That is a scary smart dog!

A while back my laberdoodle was coughing a lot. My husband was
concerned until he took him out and noticed paper towels in his
poop! Apparently they are very absorbent. Notice a trend with
my dog?

You don't dare leave ANYthing on the floor or the coffee table!

I've been baking bread. I had 6 loaves in a shopping bin on the
table. DH left his chair out (could have just as easily been
me). I noticed that there were only 5 loaves in the bin. I
went to ask DH if he'd given a loaf to anyone. Nope. Hmmm...
I'm sure there were 6 but maybe there were only 5.
Came back out, heard crinkle, crinkle. And found one of the
dogs had grabbed a loaf and had eaten at least 1/3 of it. Same
dog who ate the better part of 1/2 a cherry pie a while back.
You'd think we'd learn not to leave food on the table and make
sure to push all the chairs in...

So our youngest cat, Marmalade, is very very smart and has been
trained to ring a set of sleigh bells hanging on our back door
to go out (as opposed to crying indiscriminately for food,
water, pets, getting his favorite toy out from under yet another
piece of furniture). The older cats have taken note of this and
will also do it (but not terribly consistently).
This system works pretty well.... except for the middle of the
night when he’s decided he’d like a snack and this is a good way
to get one of the horizontal bodies vertical.
His modification works too, since I’m usually not awake enough
to reason out what’s going on and get up to find out. I’m really
not too sure just who has trained whom.

We started that with our pup. He could nose the bells and
someone would get up to let him out. Now he's 16 months old, and
has found out that if rings the bells, someone will get up and
go to the door to open it. Half the time he dodges around them
and steals their chair.

We went to Busch gardens one year and our hotel was a revamped
motor lodge. We brought our golden retriever. Unfortunately he
was smart enough to know how doors worked. He figured out if he
jumped up and hit the door handle he could open the door.
We were sitting in our car ready to start our day and was
putting the address in our gps. Thankfully we did, because a
minute later our dog trotted by our car window saw us and jumped
up to the car window.
Fortunately the park had a kennel service!

Had a Great Dane lab mix growing up. One night my brother,
sister and I were eating popcorn, but not sharing with him. He
sat up, looked out the picture window and barked a couple times.
We all sat up to see what he was barking at, and he then drove
into the popcorn bowl to help himself.
