What did one of your pets do to make you laugh?

One of ours spent 2 hours trying to figure out how to fit a 10 lb watermelon in his mouth.

My wife called me one morning frantic because the same dog had gotten out of the yard. Turns out he had jumped into the compost ring behind the shed and couldn't figure out how to jump back out.

One of these

Some friends and I were hunting in the marsh with my older dog probably 7 years ago. We shot a bird right after shooting time and it fell probably 10 yards from our hide across this little ditch. I sent the dog and she couldn't come up with the bird. She was in her prime and this was totally abnormal for her - she would maybe lose 1-2 birds a year. It was early and we couldn't see really well, so we figured the bird dove and died under water in the grass, and decided to go look for it after we were one short of our limit.

We got to the end of the hunt and the three of us paddled across the ditch with the dog to find the bird. She hunts a little bit and starts going absolutely batshit crazy and digging into the mud right by the bank. We are 100% certain at this point that she's on the bird and so we start trying to help her dig into the grass, pulling grass out of the way, egging her on, good dog, hunt it up, etc. After about 2-3 minutes of this exercise, she jams her face into the mud up to her collar and comes out with a fully alive and squeaking harvest mouse. She was prouder of that mouse than I think I've ever seen her with any bird. We still tell that story often and will long after she's gone.


My young pup is only 8 months old, but I walked outside on the back porch a few days ago and she was blowing bubbles in her water bowl and then attacking them. I got a kick out of that. She is also an absolute menace to spiders and mosquito hawks and will jump into the air with all fours off of the ground to try to catch mosquito hawks with her mouth.

I have a red jagd terrier about 2 years old named Emma. Amazing little dog. She retrieves ducks. Recovers deer. Squirrel hunter extraordinaire.
I got my taxidermy mount a couple of weeks ago. I hung it in my room. She comes down the hall and see’s this pronghorn staring at her. She freaked out. Her little legs went a hundred miles an hour on the hardwood floor. She couldn’t go after it, nor could she get away from it.
Now when she comes down the hall I ask her if that “booger” is going to get her and she acts all bad arse.

140# Rott, dad tossed a pot of collars and ham hocks in the woods one afternoon and he found them. He cleaned them up and was full as a tick. Later every step he let out a whistle. Dude loved mcdonalds fries and we made plenty trips to the drive through, the workers never appreciated his love for them.

I had a great Dane that was absolutely fearless and an amazing guard dog. He kept us safe for 11 great years. He did have one chink in his armor though. He was deathly afraid of his own farts! LOL

He would freak out looking for our help when he would fart. He didn't understand how something invisible could creek up on him and make a noise I guess.

My mid size super athletic dog Molly will occasionally screw up her jump on to the couch when running to it from the side & smash into the side of it knocking her to the ground. My other smaller dog Max looks at her like "What are you? Stupid or something?"
