What weird things do your pets do? My dog has a fear of ladders and goes bonkers whenever she sees any. So you can imagine what its like when the window cleaners come...

The other day, she got scared by her food.
When I'm at this computer, you can turn around and see into my living room, but the end of the sette cuts off some of your view. For the last three days, the dog has been barking at me - then hiding behind the sette and just sticking his nose out.
I've tried everything, giving him food, giving him treats, letting him outside... he purely is doing it for fun. Moron.
My doggie used to bark and bite the hoover as he was scared of it
We were sitting at a table, and she was lying in front of my feet, only about 2 centimeters from the table's leg. Then a cat passed by, and she stood up to go bark at it. She managed to hit her head on the table leg.
Whenever they have a visitor and the visitor is about to leave, she "inspects" the lift before letting him go in.
when the other dog was younger, she always used to bark at the hoover.
Poor dog, that must have hurt her.
She also grabs the post out of the letter box and brings it into the living room.
She knows the name of every cuddly toy including Spot, Teddy, Puppy, Sir Humpalot, Wheelie and Suzi Spider.
She knows what 'back in a minute' means and will jump off your lap when you say 'I've got to get up'
Sophie LOVES nicking tissue out of your hand, hiding under the coffee table with it and ripping it up.
Another rabbit will carry straw or newspaper in his mouth and hop back and forth in his cage if he wants attention, he also makes a grunting noise when he is happy, like 'vvvt vvvt vvvt'. The only other rabbit I've known to make this noise was his dad.
Daisy (you guessed it, another rabbit) gets really jealous whenever there are any other female rabbits in the garden, and will sulk with her back towards us for days.
A guinea pig we used to have that lived inside could find his way from the front door all the way to his cage in the living room, run to it and climb back in!
my other dog chico also likes to crawl across the floor with his legs trailing behind him. its a bit of a competition in our house as to who can get him to crawl the longest before he gets up
and suzie (who is miniature sausage dog) - because she has really short legs, sometimes when she runs too fast her back legs go faster than her front ones and she does backward flips
They are my favorite, I want one so bad
The mans parents dog eats toilet bowl cleaner (twice) boy was his dad pissed after that, said it cost him a few hundred dollars at the vet!
She also eats rabbit poop.
And she does this thing, his dad will mix human food (like ham or other meat) in with her dog food, she'll eat the human food and will manage not to have a bit of the dog food.
my aunts dog likes to watch any sport involving a ball on tv. And say when golfs on and the guy is swinging back ready to hit the ball....she starts backing up ready to catch it like its going to come out of the tv!
yep thats a sausage dog - well, a miniature one anyway!! thats what i have except mine is long haired
all my dogs eat poop too btw :rolleyes: pretty gross. especially when it was fresh stuff like it was the other day
They are so cute. My mom had one growing up, my grandma made it a sleeping bag and they would call it in the morning and it would stick its nose out of it, I've seen pictures
barks at the vacuum cleaner
is scared of the ironing board
will quite happily sit on the back of the sofa to watch people walk past
will drag herself along the floor
will run round the house like a nutter for no apparant reason (bouncing off sofas and running into radiators etc)
