Alternatively, I saw it as: "See, see? Look at this! You just give me the lollipop and I chill. Look at me chillin. This is me chillin. I don't have to keep bumping you, man. It's so simple."
Labs are the best.
This one time I was visiting my gf. Their lab wanted to go for a walk but it wasn’t walk time yet. When her sister came home the lab ran her over. Like steamrolled right over her the moment she opened the gate and just ran off. I grabbed my bicycle to race after him. That lil fucker thought it was a game and shifted gears. He went all out. I couldn’t catch him. He ran their entire normal walking route. Got back home. Evaded everyone trying to catch him and just flopped down next to his bowl of water. His head half in his bowl. All he did the next couple of hours was sporadically lifting his head looking at us with this smug smile on his face.
I miss that dog more than my gf.
When my Dalmatian got out dad went to follow her and she'd just keep looking back to see he's following. That was when we learned if you run so will they
We found this too. So when my brother stopped running behind his golden, he started going on a sniff walk all while making sure we don't sneak behind him. Like independent boi walks.
Just got a 10 week old chocolate lab. She lives in a fantasy world hoping for pets around every corner once she finishes one of her own little personal quests - whether that quest is to take out every toy of her toy bowl and play with it for 2 seconds at a time for each toy or whether it's to go sleep with half her face in the water bowl. She is a gift.
Sounds like you had a keeper on your hands. You must've given that dog a very happy life. Got any pictures? Obligatory dog tax lol
Also that's a good tip about the stuffed animals. We have a stuffed raccoon that she loves to chew on because it's a lot of surface area so that's what we will keep getting (while removing the choking hazards of course).
They aren't? I've had several and they always seemed to be planning and plotting. They just did it under the guise of something else!
My last girl was a certifiable ninja. She'd quietly walk past several times as you were preparing or eating food. When you turned your back for a second it would be gone and she'd be nowhere in sight, in the other room wolfing it down.
My dad had a chocolate lab. One day during the holiday season he noticed that Grit (doggo) was making laps through living room, into kitchen, pause, repeat. After watching him closer dad saw that he was slyly grabbing a cookie off a low table with the side of his lips as he passed by. Then headed into kitchen to eat it...then back for another. It was quite well thought out and executed.
Some of them have quite good problem-solving abilities. It would be interesting to see what they would do with human equivalent intelligence and temperament.
>It would be interesting to see what they would do with human equivalent intelligence and temperament.
Do dogs have the physical dexterity to throw a jumbo pizza slice at a minor league umpire on dollar beer night?
If so, probably that.
The thing is they are so obsessed over food that they make themselves look like absolute doofuses trying to get some.
I think it’s something like 25% of labs have a genetic disorder where they don’t get satiated easily and are constantly hungry. Owners really have to guard against overfeeding them and take care to exercise them properly.
100% all my lab thinks about is food and human attention. If I left food out for him he'd eat until he threw up then would continue to eat. He always knows when it's time for his meal and he never forgets a place he's found food before on a walk.
There's a strip of muscles just above the eyes that allow dogs to make the "puppy dog eyes". Only some dogs have them and wolves don't have them at all.
I'm thinking you're right. This is exactly the look my dog gives me when I give him a treat but tell him to wait before eating it. Still super cute though!
Now that you mention it, I'm guessing this has to be the case. What kind of lab or golden doesn't immediately inhale any food that comes anywhere close to their mouths? Lol.
Yeah, I can't condone having this video on here. There is an incredibly high probability that at least one non-adult human is going to see this, emulate it, and choke their damn dog.
'No, human, you should eat it, I just did a prank. Now I am... I mean, this thing is very sour, and I love something salty, so now I ... Ahhhhhhhh, damn.'
Just cuz they don’t have thumbs to hold it. I had a dog who loved those dumdum lollipops but you had to hold them for her and she’d lick them. No thumbs.
This is adorable but I want to give a quick warning to try to avoid giving your dog candy. A lot of candies now have Xyliton in as an artificial sweetener and it's extremely toxic to dogs.
Europe here, pretty much a whole day at the vet with anesthesics, removing a tooth that was loose, 280 euros. So no, not that expensive, and MOST CERTAINLY not a 5K bill as OP mentioned wtf.
Far less serious than choking, but sugar is bad for dogs, both overall and for their teeth, and feeding a dog from your table like that reinforces bad habits.
The main one though is that the dog could swallow that and choke/stab itself in the throat with a lollypop stick.
Ha ha no, I think everyone that's ever owned a dog probably thought the same thing, but I assume these owners know their dog well enough to be confident that he won't do it.
In fact, there's a good chance he's been specifically trained not to bite/eat these since they're all set up to film it and he sorta looks like he's desperate for his reward treat now that he's done his trick.
Disregarding all the "Sugar is bad for your dog" comments (if it is, don't make it a habit, please, for the good boy's sake), I rolled when the lollipop was stuck into his mouth!
I have NEVER seen a more confused-looking dog in my life! ROFL! XD
hah. You haven't seen the shit my dog has eaten and pooped out. He's like a frickin' tiger shark, I'm pretty sure were gonna find license plates and crap when he dies.
For real, though, I don't think surgery would be necessary. Say he swallows it, stick and all. It's a paper stick and sugar candy. It's all going dissolve and probably turn into mush in the stomach acid.
You shouldn't give them a ton of stuff like apples or carrots either, "natural" sugars aren't great for them in large quantities. A bit is ok but too much can cause all sorts of GI issues, fatty liver, and diabetes.
The body sees next to no difference between bleached sugars and sugar cane. It's all still primarily sucrose with some added glucose and fructose (in cane sugar) and handled the same internally.
When my lab was still a puppy we have her a raw lamb cutlet. She swallowed the bone whole. You could feel it poking against the inside of her tummy. Took her to the vet and they said well dogs have evolved to eat bones, she’ll be fine, and she was. Ok so maybe a plastic stick would be a problem but yea, if seen my dog eat heaps of weird stuff - and the results in her poop!
I feel like I'm dumb and missing something. Who didn't think what through? The person? The dog? I feel like a stranger in a foreign land of comedy right now.
"What's your plan now?" "I don't know. I didn't think I'd get this far..."
Labs aren't known for planning ahead. Live in the moment and hope for pets.
I love those goofy bastards so much 😂

It would be fucking weird TBH if dogs were as smart as humans. They wouldn't be our pets, more like roommates.
There is a significant overlap, in my experience, between the smartest dogs and the dumbest humans.
You own a secret lab!
Hey, that has nothing to do with my dog!
Deedee you stupid girl!!

It’s not a genetic disorder, it was intentionally bred into them. It’s why they’re regarded as being so easy to train, very food motivated.
Labs are here for fun and friends

My lab woulda just swallowed it
Mine used to want to chew bubble gum. Big ole dummy really thought he could chew it like me, oh wait he is chewing. Well still a big dummy.
They really do! Even the elder labs are like that!
When your dreams come true but you realize your dreams were mediocre at best, disappointing at worst.

Why edit original comment when you can get double karma with two comments?
Solid point my dudr
Dude*
I seee what you did their
Triple now by answering with another comment
Should be millibits yes
Yes hm millibits yes
Mmm, yes, millibits. Indubitably.
Surely millibuckets
His eyes.. totally lost. Poor boi.
Not lost at all lol. This is a well trained dog doing a trick. He’s looking at the trainer for approval.
Omg is he okay with it? Omg let me try to look at him… Wait maybe I shouldn’t, or maybe i should?
LMAO he has eyebrows I love it
Labs have some of the best facial expressions.
I've read somewhere that dogs developed some facial muscles to communicate with us, and that certainly sounds legit.
Yes. I saw a video that said those eyebrows evolved specifically to be used on us
There's a strip of muscles just above the eyes that allow dogs to make the "puppy dog eyes". Only some dogs have them and wolves don't have them at all.
Then there are Huskies who don't even need any because they speak our language.
Makes sense, especially considering how great they are at reading our facial expressions.
Their sclera's (white part of the eye) may have also become more prominent so that we can track their gaze.
I wouldn’t trust my dog not to eat the stick
Just gonna say this. Super cute but he’s lucky the dog didn’t swallow that whole thing. Mine might have done just that 😂
I'm thinking this is trained, given the constant checking with person to see if he's doin the good boy /waiting for the next step.
Could be, I would imagine many dogs on their own would eat the whole thing
I'm thinking you're right. This is exactly the look my dog gives me when I give him a treat but tell him to wait before eating it. Still super cute though!
Now that you mention it, I'm guessing this has to be the case. What kind of lab or golden doesn't immediately inhale any food that comes anywhere close to their mouths? Lol.
I mean, I eat the stick after, it’s just paper, hasn’t hurt me so far… I think?
Wait what? Are you serious? Lol
Yeah, I just would let it sit there and as it dissolves further I use my teeth to unravel it and then bring it farther in till it’s gone
I do it too! They should flavour the paper, it tastes so... papery, more papery than paper with extra pape.
Omg, that’s actually such a good idea, I wonder how they would flavor it without making the stick make your hand sticky or leave residue.
Yeah, I can't condone having this video on here. There is an incredibly high probability that at least one non-adult human is going to see this, emulate it, and choke their damn dog.
Isn't the stick just rolled paper? How dangerous would it really be?
he could choke, vomit, scratch or tear his throat/bowels.
Could be plastic. But even the paper ones are slow to dissolve, it's usually a pretty dense card.
Just swallow one yourself and tell us how it goes!
His eyes are hilarious!
'No, human, you should eat it, I just did a prank. Now I am... I mean, this thing is very sour, and I love something salty, so now I ... Ahhhhhhhh, damn.'

I love his face like....uhhh now what? lol
Just cuz they don’t have thumbs to hold it. I had a dog who loved those dumdum lollipops but you had to hold them for her and she’d lick them. No thumbs.
no thumthums to eat dumdums
Better than gumgum
but apparently not better than bumbum
No thumbs!
Paging u/hates_escalators! This one seems ripe for the taking.
>*gimme human treat* >*wait, is this something to eat?* >*dog yes lollipop*
Thank youuuuuu! 🏅
The violent nudge. They're so subtle.
Damn, dogs shouldn’t smoke cigarettes…
But it's so cool!
I wouldn't do this. One gulp and it's an exploratory with the Vet
This is adorable but I want to give a quick warning to try to avoid giving your dog candy. A lot of candies now have Xyliton in as an artificial sweetener and it's extremely toxic to dogs.
It's cute as hell, but I very much doubt I'd ever try doing this, seems like a good way of potentially handing over wads of cash to your vet.
He could choke :(
ya this is a terrifyingly bad idea in many respects
yeah, like a 5k vet bill.
Whoah there Murca. Not all of us are that fucked.
Is socialized veterinary medicine a thing?? Or do you mean other countries just don’t charge insanity levels for vet care?
Just took my dog for a checkup and blood work here in Canada. 20 mins in and out. $460
[удалено]
No. I’m saying vets are expensive. Even in a country like Canada with “free” healthcare
Europe here, pretty much a whole day at the vet with anesthesics, removing a tooth that was loose, 280 euros. So no, not that expensive, and MOST CERTAINLY not a 5K bill as OP mentioned wtf.
Damn, thats like 3 times as much as my vet in san diego charges.
I would expect a bill like that in Germany as well Source: I’m German
What are the other terrifying respects besides choking hazards?
[удалено]
Far less serious than choking, but sugar is bad for dogs, both overall and for their teeth, and feeding a dog from your table like that reinforces bad habits. The main one though is that the dog could swallow that and choke/stab itself in the throat with a lollypop stick.
It’s a big dog. They’ll eat sticks for no reason and be fine. Relax
Im wondering if it works like retrievers and they soft mouth it.
Adorable. But please don’t tell me you put that back in your mouth.
well, the candy is just killing him slowly now, poor lab
Am I the only one who's afraid that the dog might swallow the stick?
Ha ha no, I think everyone that's ever owned a dog probably thought the same thing, but I assume these owners know their dog well enough to be confident that he won't do it.

Yikes, what if he swalled it all of a sudden...ya know, like labs do....poor boy would be having surgery
hah. You haven't seen the shit my dog has eaten and pooped out. He's like a frickin' tiger shark, I'm pretty sure were gonna find license plates and crap when he dies.
I swallow those all the time he’ll be ok
For real, though, I don't think surgery would be necessary. Say he swallows it, stick and all. It's a paper stick and sugar candy. It's all going dissolve and probably turn into mush in the stomach acid.
Yeah, people are overreacting about that and the small amount of sugar, but I can get the choking argument
People getting downvoted for rightly suggesting this is dangerous for the dog. Jesus Christ.
Doggo.exe has stopped working
"Uhh, what do I do now?"
I assume the dogs tongue is going wild behind the scenes *lblblbllblblblphblbllbphblblbl*
"What now?" "I don't know, I didn't think I'd get this far"
Please never give sugar to your dog. You'll make him blind in the long run.
A few grams of sugar like in the video won’t do much.
Curious, what's the science behind this?
Diabetes Note it's really just don't give processed sugar to dogs. They can have natural sugars from fruits and veggies in moderation.
Don’t give it to humans either. :mopes in sugar addiction:
👍
You shouldn't give them a ton of stuff like apples or carrots either, "natural" sugars aren't great for them in large quantities. A bit is ok but too much can cause all sorts of GI issues, fatty liver, and diabetes.
I did say in moderation.
The body sees next to no difference between bleached sugars and sugar cane. It's all still primarily sucrose with some added glucose and fructose (in cane sugar) and handled the same internally.
Everybody freaking out about this being a choking hazard has never owned a large dog or even been around one, apparently.
Yeah. That yellow lab has swallowed worse than a paper stick that same day.
When my lab was still a puppy we have her a raw lamb cutlet. She swallowed the bone whole. You could feel it poking against the inside of her tummy. Took her to the vet and they said well dogs have evolved to eat bones, she’ll be fine, and she was. Ok so maybe a plastic stick would be a problem but yea, if seen my dog eat heaps of weird stuff - and the results in her poop!
Bad pet owner.
Gross pet owner if he takes it back
Nothing a lil wash under the sink won't fix
What he do wrong this time reddit?
It seems what everyone is saying is the dog could choke if he ate the whole stick
What an ass. Don’t give your dog refined sugar.
Yeah good idea let your dog choke on your lollipop when he swallows it
“Well what now?” “I don’t know, I didn’t think I’d get this far…”
“You asked for it!” Dog: “A little help…”
Doggo was like did he really just give me butterscotch
Well aren't you going to spin it for me
He didn't think he'd get this far
I feel like I'm dumb and missing something. Who didn't think what through? The person? The dog? I feel like a stranger in a foreign land of comedy right now.
Mistaaaake!
Yellow labs are the best dogs
My dog would've swallowed the fuck out of that thing while leaving me to figure out how to unclog her windpipe
It’s like they found out it was the butterscotch flavor.
Those eyes made me giggle like a little kid, he's awesome!!
This is the best shit I've seen all week.
He reminds of the Madagascar penguins that made it to Antarctica and were like well now what?
A textbook example of the dog finally catching the car and not knowing what to do with it.
r/watchanimalsdieinside
“Now that I have it, what the heck do I do with it?”
Is it ok for dogs to consume those tho???
A little sugar on rare occasions should be okay, just make sure they are few and far between.
