I love when you see a dog who knows what the leash means. Charlie will kind of just stand there and wait patiently until I get to him with his harness so I can put it on him.

It is so funny, because I swear he knows when I am going to leave, even when I haven't done anything that should make him think that. Like before I grab my keys and I'm just walking around like any other time, I swear he has sonar or something because he knows that I'm leaving. He will wake up out of a nap and start following me and looking at me like, "You're not leaving me are you?" lol. I always wonder how he knows.

i figured out very recently that both my dogs know from the sound of the garage doors which person is home. they know my garage door sounds a little different than daddys and they flip out if i'm leaving and i have to open his door and shut it to leave because they think he's coming home...it's so cool

If the water or food bowl runs out, Chip throws a fit. First he paws at it a couple times then will look at me. Then he'll paw at it a little harder and whine. Then he'll start pawing a little harder and a little harder and whining louder each time. This will continue until he has a blown out FIT. He's been known to chuck bowls across the floor or push them around on the floor growling until he gets food or water. The other day he was thirsty and ran out of water so I grabbed a water bottle to put in the bowl and was teasing him some... I said "What do you want? You want water?" and he'd respond by barking. I then said "Okay, where does it go?" and he turned around and nudged his bowl with his face. We went through that a couple times.

Smokey will just jump in the bath tub and start licking the faucet that makes all kinds of racket.

Max can read my mind too.

We will be sitting on the floor playing, and if I think of doing something else, he will stop playing and sit in front of me as if to say, "Yeah? Are we going to go somewhere?" LOL, he always thinks it is about him. I wonder if my facial expression changes when I'm thinking of other things. There has to be some clue that he picks up.

Sugar barks at me every single time I stare out into space and daydream about something ~ but she barks louder and jumps up on me when whatever I am thinking about is troubling

To they let us know they need water, they will push the bowl around the floor. Do you know what a metal bowl sliding across a tile floor sounds like? Believe me you'd get up and fill it fast. When they need to go out Bubba will bark, Sissy will either stare at you and run to the door or scratch at the door. Sissy is really my big baby, she is attached at my hip but come meal time she will go to my husband and stare in his face (he feeds them).
We have been trained well to serve them and do it with a smile.

Anytme My toots wants anything.... to show me she's eating to show me she is needing to potty or wants to get more of her favorite food she will stand by whatever she is trying to explain.... tilt her head to ceiling and howl.... depending on how bad she wants whatever is how long and hard she howls

My goodness you ever hear a 5 pd needy furbutt howl trust me... Most time she gets or way. Lol Or sometimes I will tease her and ask what all whiney and she gets louder and louder.... Yep and she has us trained well. Now remind me why I got a 3 rd yorkie yesterday?

LuvTaycieGirl · 09-02-2011, 07:00 PM

This is such a cute thread! So Fun!

Taycie usually will let me know she is ready to get up in the morning by trying to find my face.. She will paw at my face and growl if I am hiding it.. If I still ignore her she ends standing on my back and on my head and growls.

Then I turn over and say... Taycie... and I get lots and lots of very sweet puppy kisses

It's my favorite.

About 6:30 every night she starts pacing.. bringing me balls.. climbing on me... staring at me.. then barking eventually follows. Until, I say," PARK" and she goes crazy!

To go out to potty she scratches at the door..or whines.. the cute puppy whine.. That always gets me to do anything

Awww. She wants to distract you from your worrying.

MamaZiggy · 09-03-2011, 06:14 AM

hehehehehe.. fun thread!

Ziggy will do one of three things (depending on which personality he is being at the time, lol).. He will either look at me then look at what he wants, or he will paw at my legs and look up at me al cute.. or he will bark and bark and go around in circles like "Mommy look at me, i want something!"

its too cute

Ringo1 · 09-03-2011, 06:38 AM

She whines - very effective, I might add.

She comes up to me and stretches - so cute, and she knows it!

She paws at Ringo's face until he gets mad at her - but at least she got him up from a comfortable position and made him chase her! Nothing more fun than an exciting game of chase.

Christinee · 09-03-2011, 12:31 PM

I love when they stand up against your leg when your sitting down and kind of "kneed" and look at you like, "mom, i'm the sweetest thing ever, give me attention please." lol

southernbelle04 · 09-03-2011, 12:37 PM

LOL! These are cracking me up! You all have such sweeties!

gracielove · 09-03-2011, 01:05 PM

Gracie is a picky eater so I don't keep food down for her. I usually feed her around supper time but if she gets hungry before then she will come up and look in my face and bark. If I look at her and ask her what is wrong she will bark more. Of course she gets what she wants. When she wants to play fetch she drops her ball beside me and then gives me a minute to figure out what she wants. If I don't respond as quickly as she would like I get another ear full. She has her way of talking without words. It's really funny when she barks with her ball in her mouth.
