Never underestimate how clever dogs can be. Especially when their owner sets rules for them...

"I'm not allowed on the couch? Well, as long as one foot is on the ground, technically I'm not breaking the rules!" Below, Bored Panda has put together a list of dogs that thought of the most clever ways to bend the rules. In fact, they bend the rules in such an adorable way it's impossible to get mad at them! But I bet they knew that already... Keep on scrolling to check out the pics and feel free to submit your own to the list.

She is not ON the couch, but IN the couch. The only difference is the first letter.

Everyone here claiming that the owner should have gotten a hypoallergenic dog must not know that there's actually NO such thing as a 100% hypoallergenic dog. None. It doesn't matter if your dog doesn't shed fur or not or if it has hair instead fur. All dogs shed skin cells (dander) and that is what people are actually allergic too. So well so-and-so may have a "hypoallergenic" dog and they don't have a reaction from said dog, doesn't mean everyone else with pet allergies won't either. And yes, keeping the dog out of the room very well can help them reduce their allergies. Maybe they don't want to have sneezing fits while trying to sleep. Sure, other areas of the home will still have dander, but at least they have one room where they can catch a break. Just because they don't allow her in their room, doesn't mean they don't love her. And frankly​ I hardly see the difference between this and crating a dog all night long. At least she still has free roam of the rest of the home!

It's "those" not "them". Your poorly-written comment leads me to understand why you made your stupid post. Do you know anything at all about allergies??

Dogs are the happiest when they see us and spend time with us because they know that their time on earth is a lot less then ours. As for the allergies thing, air purifier and zyrtec- problem solved. Your dogs should be allowed to go where you are- do you really want him or her at 14 yrs old, slowly dying, saying- I really wish I could go into that forbidden room just once to spend time with you while you're in there?

Best is to take a zyrtec if there's allergies and overall just let your dog be free to go where ever. Do you really want him or her at 14 yrs old, slowly dying saying- just once I wanted to go in that room and spend time with you while you were in there?
