Not a brain cell in sight, just living in the moment

I can even get my husky to sing along about how stupid she is. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Anyone can do this to me and I'll still enjoy it, are you kidding?

Context matters a lot, sitting with my GF and she does it? Cute. Sitting in public and Weird Dave does it I'm calling the cops

Weird Dave is a bit of a radger like that, but he'll give you the shirt off his back. He's alright once you get to know him.

Hello, fellow dog percussionists.

When a really good song is on, my little JRT is my air guitar.

I've been around enough dogs to get the drum part, but what's the song?

[โ€“] PugJesus@lemmy.world 36 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Just the common practice of telling dogs how dumb they are as they look adoringly up at you, combined with drumming to make a song.

Ok. It seems weird to me that it's so common for people to call their dogs dumb... but OK.

[โ€“] synae@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 3 weeks ago

Dogs are pretty dumb. Incomparably lovable, though

[โ€“] JustZ@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

I have a theory they actually hate this and are wagging and panting because they're nervous.

[โ€“] PugJesus@lemmy.world 24 points 3 weeks ago

Bad theory, or bad drumming, not sure which.

My sister's dog, a normally nervous and shaky pup, gets way into the bongos

[โ€“] 0ops@lemm.ee 4 points 3 weeks ago

Nah you can tell the difference between anxiety and happiness. For one the anxious dog wouldn't be begging for more by pushing their body against me. Two, the tail.

[โ€“] GBU_28@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago

No way. Dogs love drums

[โ€“] TrousersMcPants@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

You clearly haven't been around dogs very much or just don't understand them. The dogs I've lived with have practically begged me to drum on them, they love it
