Barking at animals on the TV. People thought I was crazy when I said my Aggie would bark at animals on the TV. At first, I thought it was sounds.. but I muted the TV. Aggie only barks at animals, even if they're cartoon. If the scene changes and goes back to a person, she's fine. Does anybody else's Yorkie do this? If so.. how can I help control this? I thought it was funny at first, but now we can't watch a movie without her going crazy. This is really something, people tell me they've never seen anything like it. :animal-pa:animal-pa:animal-pa |
lol my shelby rae does that too...she actually watches tv ,,,she sits on the end of my bed ears up and just watches for long periods of time...she also knows the commercials by sound she can be dead asleep and will jump up to bark at an animal in the commercial...whats bad is that I'd love to watch animal planet but I can't lol I never realized just how many animals are in commercials .:) |
Humm... interesting, a friend of mine told me dogs couldn't see the tv screen properly. I guess this proves that point wrong. Harley doesn't like it when I'm watching Cesar. He's fine with everything else... but I guess he knows he's going to get in trouble for more stuff if I watch that... lol. (or maybe its just the dogs). |
Jersey pays no attention to the TV but Brielle barks everytime she hears dogs barking on TV it's like she wants to lunge at the screen.:) |
Mine will bark at the tv if a dog is barking on it. We watched Bolt last night, and they were going crazy......Calvin would growl at Bolt even when he wasn't barking! |
That's pretty cute! Puppies are fun to watch when the tv is on. They are so curious about everything. Mine will still watch it sometimes, but generally pays no attention to it. |
Lizzy will bark at barking dogs on TV, and doorbells. I'm convinced she was born to bark, so I also kinda think she loves the excuse. :) My iphone also has a barking ringtone that will get Liz barking. |
Mine won't pay attention to just any animal on the TV, but they really notice when an animal is walking or running. I think they recognize the motion. And I've seen them go nuts barking at the TV when one animal is chasing another, like a lion chasing after an antelope or something. I wonder if they are thinking "hurry!!! run faster!!! get away!!!" or "hurry!!! catch it!! kill it!!! eat it!!!" |
I remember years ago watching Lady and The Tramp and Tzu-Hsi, one of my Lhasa's went crazy when the Lady had her puppies. She was going behind the TV looking for them! Beamer goes crazy when dogs are barking on TV and when the Pizza advert is on with the doorbell ringing, Beamer barks and goes to the door. But we don't have a doorbell! It is funny. |
I have 2 that bark and growl at the tv when other dogs bark, and 1 that barks because the other 2 are barking. They stare intently at the tv, and they sometimes get confused and run from the tv to the door and back again like they're not sure where the dogs are. They also bark at doorbells. I hate it when it's at night and I'm laying in bed trying to watch tv and everyone else in the house is asleep and they hear the doorbell on tv. All 3 of them go crazy. |
I have human family member that do that. It is not something I usually discuss in public. |
Gypsy will bark at the tv when she hears dogs barking or on the computer. I think she does it at doorbells too. We don't have a doorbell so I think it may hurt her ears some. The other 2 dogs, they start barking when Gyspy does. |
Khloe does this too. She barks when she hears dogs barking on tv or if she just sees one on a tv show. We are trying to break her of it because it's kinda irritating when your trying to watch tv :p |
My Chihuahua, Bitsy, watches TV. She not only barks at dogs, she barks at cartoon dogs!! She also used to like the Meerkat Manor show and she used to bark through most of it!! |
this is so funny, thanks for all the replies! what i think is even funnier.. is aggie will bark at the tv, stand on her legs and jump like a pogo stick. but our other dog, a long hair chihuahua will run to the door and see if someone is there.. aggie watches tv.. milton has no idea what a tv is! |
