My dog has lost her mind

[Mermaid02]

I'm sitting here dis'sing and she comes over and hits my leg with her nose and then goes to the back door- she wants to go out. I get up and go to the back door and open it.... she stands there and looks at me like I'm nuts, no way is she going out there. So I come back and sit down. A second later she comes over and hits me with her nose again- goes to the door. So I get up and this time she does go out. What changed in the 30 seconds before?

She is just letting you know who is in control.

 

[The Mystery Machine]

She is waiting for you to go out first. Perhaps you have not had enough fresh air.

 

[MeanLaureen]

It's all in the presentation. She was waiting for you to say "The door, your majesty?" Either that or she learned it from a cat.

 

[Am_I_There_Yet]

Has she been taking hints from my dog???

Chloe does this to me all the time. Now I open it and when she looks back at me like, "What?", I tell her to go pee NOW and she moves it on out.

Chloe is bad - or smart, I should say - about staring at me to get me to get up for something. Now it's to go to the back door, because DH tied a stuffed mouse onto the end of a fishing pole and she wants me to cast it for her.

So now twice a day, at least, I have to go outside and catch me some Golden Retriever.

She sees you as the "All Powerful Oz". She wants you to change the weather so it is more to her liking. Get to it!!

It is only 10:55 am and I predict that is the funniest thing I will hear today!
Oh Tag Fairy...

That's a Weim for ya! Shiloh (more often than not) will not go outside without me. He's a big wimp!

LMAO...that is soo funny!

I do think it's a good idea, though. Our boys would love to do that!

You're not kidding- if it's raining or snowing... the Princess is NOT going out until she absolutely HAS to. It's really funny to watch her stop DEAD in her tracks when she sees the rain.

Are you going to have an earthquake or something?? Animals sometimes start doing strange things right before earthquakes.

Of course that's on my mind because we had a few earthquakes last night. I woke up a few minutes prior to the earthquake to the cat scratching on the garage door trying to get in. She never wants in from the garage at night, I thought it was odd and went back to sleep. Woke up a few minutes later to an earthquake!

My dogs do the same thing. Try opening the door, closing it, and then opening it again right away...rather than sitting down in between. Sometimes that works -- yup, I can outsmart my doggies.
