That little side-eye glance the dog gives as it walks past the camera person, Like “thanks for the help…”
As a dog owner, I have sleepless nights about this.
Eh, not all of them run. I’ve got a very territorial whatever mix. About a year ago, I got a call from my neighbor telling me my front door had been open all night and if everything was alright. I was 100% awake immediately because DOG! Found him lying on the door mat, apparently he had decided that this unusual situation demanded his attention and nobody would be entering on his watch.
My mother had a cat that could open doors. Pets are smarter than most people give them credit for man.
My cat used to know how to open doors until we switched them for heavier doors
He can also use light switches
