    Default What "Cue's" Does Your Dog Pick Up On?

    I find it amazing, how our dogs learn our individual "Cue's" and what they mean.

    We all know/have the typical ones "want to go outside" "want to go for a car ride" or their reaction when you grab the lead, or collar.

    But what other ones does your best friend have?

    The ones I find interesting are when I'm working from home and she's laying in the office, could be dead asleep and snoring, but as soon as I hit the Windows Key + L to lock my computer and that "da ding" tone plays she bolts up, sits, and tail going a mile a minute, knowing I'm leaving the office and there's a chance we may be going somewhere.

    She does the same when I lock my cellphone and it makes the click.

    Neat how she associates hearing that sound with me getting up to go do something.

    She also goes bat $h1t crazy when the suitcases come out. We travel quite a bit throughout the fowl season, and vacation season and she knows what the luggage means.

    started packing last night for our turkey trip and she's been huffing and pacing non stop since, poor pup doesn't know she isn't coming on this one.

    What sets your dog off?

    What really set off our little JR was when she heard the lock to the gun cabinet snap open. She would just go absolutely bonkers.

    The sound my knife makes on a cutting board when I am cutting Watermelon. Or when the freezer door opens in the wee hours of the morning during the work week means that he may get a few frozen blueberries in his dish.

    Hank gets jacked up when I put on camouflage. He goes through the roof if I head downstairs to the hunting closet right afterwards.

    It is amazing.
    I say to my husband , " Do you want to go for a w -a- l -k ( spelling it)? The dogs can spell I guess. They start to wait for their leashes.
    Also alert to the garage door opening, ( "They're home!" )
    and the microwave being turned on. ( "Anything being made for me?")

    The smell of lipstick being put on sends the JRT to his crate sulking. It is amazing Jason.

    My alarm sound for when I go fishing is crickets chirping. My dog knows that sound means we are going in the boat and she's up before me sitting in front of the door so I can't get by her without taking her. A normal day she sleeps in until noon.

    Scraping the spoon on the bottom of an empty yogurt cup also gets her salivater flowing and she makes a fool of herself blowing spit bubbles until she gets the container to lick.

    If I open cheese my current dog will run in like she is on fire. She could be in the basement and she cues.

    My old guy that left us at Christmas would hear the train horn when I used to ride it that was about a mile from our house. He would run to the back gate of a Vegetable field we backed onto and would wait for me.

    If I pull the cutting board out my BLF know's she will be getting scrap Venison pieces or fish. Food is her # 1 motivator..

    That would also send my JRT into a frenzy.
