That's good advice as to political heroes too. Dogs know stuff.

Teasing a dog is cruel. He tries to make sense of things and if you let him, he gets smarter and smarter.

Stop thinking...let things happen...and be the ball

Too articulate. This is what dogs are thinking.

There's an entire subredit of poems in the voice of dogs, cats, and other critters. I guess it all was inspired by the i lik the bred meme.

Obama's dog thinks "Don't eat me."

The one dog doesn't care if the throw is real or fake.

The other dog will run off with the ball and bury it = a fake fetch.

My dog likes to chase the laser dot. Problem is: It's not long before he becomes aware of the laser pointer in my hand and becomes focused on it instead of the dot. It's then that I can no longer stand in one place if the game is to continue. My motion, my repositioning, is something of a reset. Sort of like turning your computer off and then on again. Buys some time until things bog down yet again.

Eric, your dog is humoring you. It knows how much you love the game.

Ruff. Hungry. Ruff. Thirsty. Ruff. Sleepy. Ruff. Walk. 42. 45? Ruff, ruff.

I love twitter, saw this one on There,
it jumps me outta my tunnels, it has become my Newzette,
do not mean to be off the point,
but yay for freely twitter-streaming 2018,
may dog-loving freedom prevail,
cheers

Dog's don't talk by barking. They talk by body language and doing.

My dog talks by picking up a toy, meaning let's go outside.

Thoughts of Dog is one of the best Twitter feeds out there! Most of Twitter is just people yelling at each other ... we all live in different tribes ... why can't we be more empathetic to each other?

My dog catches over the shoulder like Willie Mays or Willie McGee or somebody like that. She is amazing. She could play outfield for the Yankees and better than any human. Especially if you substitute a tennis ball for a baseball. Although granted her throwing skills are zero. She has no throwing skills. But she catches everything, man. In her mouth. You try that.

Saint Croix said...

And in the dark! You don't actually need electricity to play catch with your dog at night. She's got super-dark vision.

It did take her a while to figure out how to look up at the sky. That's not really a dog thing. They are more ground animals. Grounders and line drives, those are automatic. Pop flies took a while. That's minor league training for dogs, learning how to catch a pop fly.

Saint Croix said...

I can see how a dog would forget to capitalize at the beginning of a sentence.

My dog is like, grammar? What the hell?

But if you're trying to get the thought process of my dog, when she's talking about fetch?

I think you might have to add a couple of exclamation points.

If we're playing fetch or talking about fetch or just standing anywhere near a tennis ball, there would definitely be an exclamation point. Several, in fact.

I did that fake throw with our Brittany. Took her getting fooled 3 or4 times and it never worked again.

What language expresses a dog's thoughts?

Does an English dog think in English?

Does the language of speech correspond to the language of thought?

Ruff! I mean, pass the pate.

At last, a couple of twitter feeds worth following. I don't "do" twitter or Facebook, my ex-wives attorney's already know too much about me.

DogRight knows how hard it can be to get frens to see the truth.
