There’s one at my workplace. I’m there a lot on weekends doing projects, and my dog goes in with me. I taught her how to jump up, press the bar, and get a drink.
Good fun.
Then one day she was at the office when other people were there. Of course, she walks right over, jumps up and gets a drink in front of the germophobes. I said “how in the world did she figure THAT out?”, knowing I was busted.
Instead everyone marveled at how she must have learned it from watching people and started in on how smart dogs really are.
I just agreed.

And it’s totally true. If that dog ever develops the ability to talk, a lot of my world could come crashing down.

Back in the old days. They drank a weak beer all day. The water was so questionable.

Never ask where the hose was used before. Plumber friend told me that is a no no.

One of my 2 labs has an uncanny ability to read me. If I’m thinking about going to the kitchen for a snack, she often gets up and heads for the kitchen before I make a move. Same with going for a ride.
She also figured out how to unlatch a gate, so now I have a padlock on it. She hasn’t figured that one out yet, but I’m sure she’s working on it.

So true your statement. I tell my dogs lots of things. They listen and do not speak back. Dogs are good therapy and a lot cheaper than a shrink.

I have a dog that looks at me and starts opening and closing is mouth as if he was talking. He hasn’t figured out how to put the mouth and voice together for the words. I imagine, if he did, I would be shocked at what came out.

I can’t recall the last time I drank out of a water fountain.
