When it comes to puppies, it is perfectly natural for them to want to explore the world around them in their first few weeks of life. This is because, compared to their very first days of life (when their ayes and ears are sealed) the word that opens before them is completely new and full of new experiences. (more…)

Friday, May 27th, 2011Dogs that Watch Television
Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011It can be quite a funny sight, finding a dog that enjoys watching television, so if you see your dog viewing the nightly news, you should take a video and share it with your friends. There is nothing funnier than a dog with human qualities because there is something hilarious about seeing an animal act like a human. Dogs are generally interested in televisions because they really don’t understand them. To dogs, a television seems like a window into another room, so they think whatever is on the television is actually in front of them. The best example of this is when there is a dog on the television.
When there is a dog on TV, or really any other animal for that matter, most dogs start going insane. They will start barking like crazy and try to let the dog on TV know that this is their territory. Little do they know, the dog on TV can’t hear them or respond back in any way. While there is no scientific evidence for this, most people who have dogs would agree that they generally enjoy watching TV. There is a difference between staring off into space and watching TV, so you should do a little test on your dog to see which activity they are enjoying. The best thing to put on the television for this test is tennis. Almost any dog that sees tennis on the TV will start bobbing their head back and forth following the ball as it goes over the net. Some dogs will even try to snatch the ball off the television and go crazy when they can’t reach it. It’s actually pretty similar to when a dog chases around a laser pointer. They know they see something, but they don’t understand it because whenever they think they catch it, it’s not in their paws.
