Dog Licks Front Door When He Wants To Go Out But Then Owners Move And Things Get Hilarious

Every single dog has their own little adorable quirks. Some put their paws on people demanding for attention. Others turn in circles before lying down. And this Golden Retriever licks doors.

Bathroom doors, bedroom doors, closet doors, kitchen cabinets – you name it! The puppy licks doors all over the house and he’s got a pretty good reason for it! Keep on scrolling to find out why…

"He's smart. My dog lets me know that he needs to go out by s******g on the floor." I laughed so hard my colleagues turned around to look at me xD

You choose to interpret a lot of things we don't know, like the age of the dog. The owner speaks of him with great affection and I don't see any problems with not using his dog's name. After all, it can get confusing for strangers who don't know the dog. He's just keeping things simple, maybe. Or the dog's name is dog (my son's cat is named Miss Cat!). It's just a funny story.

Fairly certain that if you own a dog the no germ ship has sailed. (Not that I'm saying it's a bad thing per say).

I volunteer at AGAPE Thrift Store in our town where we earn money for the needy. At Christmas I bought some Bells that hang on the door k**b, and taught our Jack Russell Terrier puppy to reach up and ring the bells to go out, and ring some on the outside to come in. Now my hearing-impaired husband can even hear when she wants out & in. It's easier to train the dog than the husband.

He's not dumb at all. He's trained to lick the one specific door in your old house. To you, all doors may be equal, but he, he associates that one door with going outside. All other doors simply can't replace it.

My dog used to catch hold of the nearest person and pull using his paws and when it was really uncontrollable he would use sharp barks to get our attention. It pained to to see him ashamed when he used to lose control of his bladder because of his enlarged heart.

All the doors smell the same,he could tell the door before because it had a different smell,dogs have use different methods to differentiate between similar spaces than we do and memory isn't their strong suit.Spray the door with something that he liked and he will always remember.

My dog stares at me, shakes his butt and then runs to back door and stares at it. If you don't get up, he'll come back and do it all over again.

My dog would walk to me, then walk to the door when he wanted out. I even trained him to only go in one area of the yard.

I did babysit for a Canine family member of a friend for a short while. He used to promptly pick up his leash and put it at my feet and look up.

Smarter than my last little pinhead. She never learned to alert me when she had to go! In fact, one night I got up to go to the bathroom, when I came back she had peed all over the exact middle of the bed!! Arrg! I ended up sleeping in the recliner that night!

Mine walks to the front door, then comes back and looks at me expectantly.. for peeing, and pooping. If for some reason it happens in the middle of the night, he will not wake us up, but go in the master bathroom, on the floor!

This is the limit of the conditioning. LOL. Even flies can learn conditioning, every animal on earth. If you treat your dog as a fly, he will treat you as dumb as you think he is. Get a fly, don't breed dogs. I suffer as this dog is suffering, sorry for that, he can't speak, i will. This is dumb but the dog is not, and i'm sorry for him because he have to live with this dumb humans.

This is an older dog, and unlearning everything he/she did for years is difficult. Even older humans become confused with age. The owner, being the pack leader, hasn't gone back and patiently helped his follower relearn things. And worse, the owner never once mentioned the old guy's name, which tells me that he is not a loving dog owner. As everyone here knows, I always talk about Charlie, and never call him "my dog", or "my shih-tzu".

Just bc you tell storys about your dog by saying its name, that does not mean everyone does. So, when I talk about my pets, it depends on who I'm talking to. But that doesn't mean I don't love my pets. Also, you don't know either how old the dog exactly is, nor what the owner does to help or help him not to relearn. Maybe he just don't know how to help him the right way, maybe he tries to figure out, but wanted to tell the story. Maybe he has shorten the story. Its okay to suspect things about a story, but saying it like it would be fact ist kind of wrong.
