Funny Pet Stories

My two dogs are scared of everything, my bin, kites, lampshades, my mum's slippers, planes, other dogs, our back gate when it is open, fireworks and my personal favourite a giant cyclops head (which has a moving mouth) I made with my drama group. My point is my dogs are scared of everything which can lead to some very funny reactions to things we never expect.
From this, I thought I wanna hear about everyone else's funny pet stories. I don't know if this is a discussion already but I haven't seen one so I made one myself aha.
I'll start. So last week my mum bought a new rug for our hallway, it's a woven rug like the rest we have in our hallways so no big deal. However, due to owning the most scared dog in the world when my mum put it down, he refused to go past it and each time he got close he'd sniff it then walk backward really slowly as if it was going to eat him or something. Finally, he worked up the courage to walk over it but as soon as he stepped onto it he full-on jumped and spread his paws as far as he could, I know I shouldn't laugh but it was super funny. He then slowly lay down and didn't move from the rug for a good hour or so and when he did he ran off as quickly as he could. He's slowly come to terms with the rug now but it was definitely a learning process for him. And that's the story of my dog's latest fear. More to come as time goes on ahaha
Hope to hear some of your pet's weird fears or just funny stories in general, let's make pet lovers smile!!

I have a pug and he is a real big idiot. He gets so excited over anything and he ends up falling down the stairs. He likes to run laps of the house and he went to run out to garden but the door was closed so he just ran straight into it head first!

This is a lovely idea for a thread - pets are sooo funny.
I have a labrador retriever called Theo and he is a complete and utter nutter. Like any dog he loves his walks, and in our woods, he regularly finds toys that other dogs have left behind.
Today’s find was a skanky old tennis ball, which he insisted on keeping in his mouth for the remainder of the walk until he got home... and then traipsing it through the house. We finally managed to get the ball off him and chuck it outside (this ball is vile) and now every time he goes outside he finds it and tries to bring it back inside. We’ve resorted to not letting him in until he drops it, but he doesn’t have the problem solving skills to realise that the skanky ball is the problem so every time we open the door when he drops it...he grabs it again and cycle repeated.
The way he insists is sooo funny.

He’s also brought massive footballs home and he’s snuck them into the house somehow without us knowing and we then suddenly have a football rolling around our living room.
