Dogs really arenât much better.  I teach all my dogs the command âshow meâ.  How it works is if the dog needs something but Iâm having trouble understanding what exactly theyâre trying to tell me, I say âshow meâ and they lead me to whatever the problem is.  Usually they lead me to a real problem (like a toy that got stuck under the couch, their water bowl is empty, etc).  But sometimes they want me to fix things like this-
They pulled the covers off my bed and now they want me to put the covers back
They put their ball on top of the ottoman but the ottoman wonât throw it for them
The cat is sleeping and wonât chase them
A flower fell off the potted plant
The cat is sitting in a box and they donât like it
One of them lost their bandana
The cat wonât take the toy theyâre trying to give her
The cat DID take the toy they gave her and now they want it back
