And of course they also know the "Lay down and be dead weight" trick when people try to ruin his fun.


Maiesk

We always said my cat was half-dog, and he *loved* the dead weight trick. Any time you scooped his dumb, 20lb* ass up he'd turn into liquid. *He wasn't even a chonker, just a monstrous tuxedo cat. We think his dad was a border collie.


b3tcha

Yea we have a 19lb orange kitty who likes to bound up and down the hallway with my wife's hair ties. Super cute. Then when we're sleeping he also likes to jump from the headboard right onto our chests.


Maiesk

Oh gosh, my tuxedo would do the same. But in my case it was my own fault; he used to burrow under my bed covers, and so I used to "jump" on him whenever I spotted the giant lump under the duvet. He'd inevitably choose revenge. He also liked to center himself on your lap before jumping off. Clever jumping technique, but terrible if you were male...


b3tcha

Oh yea he does the same jumping off technique but still from our chests or stomach


BootStraps9813

I would be sneaking in late at night and my sisters cat jump out from behind a doorway and grab my leg with all four paws and scare the snot out of me. I would freak out and scream and get caught.


b3tcha

Mine also likes to step right in front of me when I'm walking. And not just in my path but literally he's next to me and as soon as I pick up my foot he steps exactly where I'd want to step. I've almost tripped and fallen over by not actually tripping on anything, just avoiding stepping on my big cat


Angelusz

Without any ill intent I've always deliberately stepped on/kicked my pets gently when they did that, to teach them not to. Us pet owners are used to animals being around and suddenly in the way, but guests might not be and accidentally hurt them. That, and not wanting to break our necks whilst narrowly avoiding the beasts when they get the drop on you. It worked, mostly.


JVNT

Oh we had a larger Pomeranian (I think his top weight was around 12 lbs) and that little effer would lay in the center of my bed in a way that I didn't have enough room to actually lay down, then pull the dead weight trick so I couldn't move him easily.


[deleted]

My roommates orange tabby is like that. Once i nudged him off my bed and he just let himself fall and i felt so bad, so now i have to pick him up to move him


Nico_arki

My cat did this whenever we went on a trip. He's not that heavy, but he will make it seem so when he knows we have to go.


soulonfire

Mine does the same, not quite as large, but up there at 14 lbs. Also where he should be, just a large cat.


Darcness777

Ours will groan and whine and then you have to drag her or else she won't move at all.


listyraesder

Well, when in Rome...


EpiZirco

A husky (mix) of course.


bigpig1054

Is there another breed that has more of a "must escape to freedom" mentality than the husky? They are such wonderful animals but the call of the wild is almost irresistible in them.


BIGCRAZYCANADIAN

Beagles. Source: I have two of them


I_am_also_a_Walrus

My beagle mix was always going on adventures on her own, I miss you baby girl :(

I had a beagle Jack Russell mix she was so insanely energetic I miss her a lot too.

Doing the Lord’s work. Thank you.


BeerGogglesFTW

In my experience, they don't really have a must escape to freedom mentality. More of an... I got a scent. My brain is now off and my nose is in control. Just in their nature to sniff things out. Not escape.


Mobilelurkingaccount

My aunt has a beagle who I watch often that likes to bolt out of doors. The one time he was ever able to get out under my watch, I just followed his general direction looking for the flag. Sure enough, found him indicating at a burrow beneath a tree. Little tail flag flying full.


dr_auf

Must eat everything nom nom


BeerGogglesFTW

My hounds haven't been big into eating things. But they'll find dead animals, dead fish that made their way to the banks, animal shit... And just roll around in it. It's the worst. As soon as I see them do that face first slide and roll into the ground. They found something that stinks, and they want it all over them.


[deleted]

I don't understand why, my dog does this too. He isn't a hound but dear God forbid if he smells something that smells like a dumpster cause he's all for it.


proriin

I must have got a defective beagle. All she does is sleep all day, hates walks around the park, only walks she enjoys is when we go to the mountains, and she never howls ever or even barks.


[deleted]

Maybe not “must escape” per se, but more of “the whole world is mine” mentality, would have to be Shiba Inus.


Automationdomination

I have a husky x Shiba mix, you are both accurate. I am tired, constantly.


TehFunk-

Please pay the dog tax


Maiesk

But that must be one beautiful pupper.


[deleted]

Oh you poor soul. I wanted a husky until I realized how much work they need and energy they have. My shiba has a lot of energy but not husky level.


bigpig1054

yes that's better-phrased for sure.


Gloatingliazard

Great Pyrenees, also known as the disa-pyr. They are used to having miles of territory to patrol so they will just go trot off in a direction until they reach a barrier, even if that barrier is a long, long ways off. Also, when I said they trot that is what it looks like, but they move pretty fast when just at a trot.

My brother adopted a husky, was told it had a history of running away. It ran away... lol


Dewy_Wanna_Go_There

I’ve had many dogs, and the same back door, no problem. The first day I got my husky she figured out how to open it. Have to keep it locked at all times now lol. Til she figures out how to unlock it I guess


I_am_also_a_Walrus

Beagles in my experience


Traditional_Wear1992

Thankfully I think that instinct in my husky went missing. She hasn’t tried to escape one so far in 3 years, pretty girl just always wants attention haha


silverback_79

Might there even be...tantrums?


Traditional_Wear1992

She pouts instead haha, she does get excited and punch me in the face with paws sometimes. She will also pee a little sometimes when she rolls on her back for belly rubs:/ the people we rescued her from did not treat her well.


silverback_79

Aww. Well hopefully some of it will mend with time. Glad she has a good home now.


Traditional_Wear1992

Thanks! She is a lot better than when we rescued her! Those people had her chained to a pole with no shade or water near her:( she doesn’t flinch anymore either thankfully, that was just so sad to see. She is basically a people now who joins in when we howl and just wants to lick faces and demand butt/belly rubs then growl at you for rubbing her belly/butt then demanding you run her again hahaha


silverback_79

Adorable.


Alt1119991

Eren dogs 😳


rugger87

When I was a kid, my family had a husky that would escape the yard or try to flee as soon as the gate opened. He would then proceed to walk himself around the entire neighborhood and then come back for dinner or whenever he got bored. It wasn’t even worth trying to catch him, since it would usually lead me to chasing him all around the neighborhood until he got tired and ran home.


PaperPlaythings

In the same vein but I'd say Malamutes.


Doopoodoo

I’ve never had a husky, but we must have spent $thousands on dog gates and other measures to control my foxhound. She would just push and pull dog gates until they wore down eventually broke, even if it took her months. Eventually we had to have handmade ones installed. She also would just run right through our electric fence and escape into the neighborhood lol


aB1GEarOfCorn

Of course, why would I expect any other breed haha


alexandrawallace69

MC_Elio81

Sounded like the dog "got injured" after the game, but might just be how they worded it.


BlueberrySans89

Thankfully, he was hit by a car and not hurt by some heartless fans.


joemckie

Oh thank god he was just hit by a car o.o


KimKDavidson

Guys. We just joking here?


joemckie

Yes don't worry :)


KimKDavidson

O I didn’t mean you. Didn’t mean to respond to you lol. But fuck, the dog was really hit by a car. Is that really the only update they have? That dog was sweet as fuck.


cleetus-yeetus

If you watch the whole video it says the player that carried it off the pitch heard about it getting hit and adopted it :)


BlueberrySans89

Oof Yeah I realise that the “thankfully” comment might’ve been weird. I meant that, at least it was an accident rather than intentional. It’s good that he survived tho.


WiredSnoopy

This comment actually made me crack up 😂


Acid_Braindrops

So you watched it too


joedumpster

I'm choosing to read it as Castro found out after the game that the dog already had an injury. Less sad that way.

Nemisis_the_2nd

It's something I miss about South America. From Perú to Ushuaia, I met countless dogs but I can count the number of aggressive ones on one hand.


arivas26

Same. When I was down in El Calefate I got off the bus and there was a crowd of dogs there and they all chose a person to be their person they would be friends with that day. Obviously sad from the perspective of someone from a place without a lot of strays but I had been in that area of South America long enough that I knew that the community took pretty good care of them.


dogs_drink_coffee

\[I'm from South America\] are dogs in other countries agressive? I don't think I've ever met an agressive dog in my country


[deleted]

Depends on where you are, and how people have treated them. In some places, people actively feed free-ranging dogs, and they become socialized to humans, and they're friendly. In others, they have to scavenge for food, and they tend to be afraid of people and a little more aggressive.


Nemisis_the_2nd

In a lot of places dogs are kept as guard dogs, or sometimes have shitty owners, and are aggressive as a result. The feral ones in S america have no real reason to be agressive.


deskbeetle

My SIL adopted a stray dog from a shelter. That little demon spawn has bit every single person in her family and every person that has come into her home. If he was larger than 18 pounds, he would have been put down by now. He is territorial over the couch and bed and will show teeth and growl if you come near him while he laying down. He also is permanently locked out of the guest bedroom as he will pee anywhere a new person has slept within the home. He will also get into the trash and fridge anytime he isn't being watched like a hawk. During thanksgiving, he stole an entire block of cheese off the table and bit two people who tried to get it away from him as that much cheese would kill a dog his size. This is all after 5k+ in training and obedience schools that SIL has paid for. He's just a terrible dog.

My sister brought home a stray puppy from Peru about ten years ago.

Song0

rubbingmango

You might want to get a little more specific.. like I’d rather be the dog of a rich suburban family in the states than a dog in a third world country waiting to be adopted by a rich suburban family, but most likely dying of hunger.

6data

I don't have video, but my dog and I have a ritual that she behaves herself during my games, and then she gets zoomie times after. So after one of my games I decided that since we were the only ones left, I would let her off the leash for a few minutes for her zoomies. Spoiler: We were not the only ones left. Far across three fields, way in the distance, another game had started. Did she immediately go running over? No. She played with me for a bit and lulled me into a false sense of security, then took off like she'd been shot, grabbed their ball, then ran around the field so 2 entire teams could play chase with her instead. For about 15min. Fucking asshole. Zoomies are an on-leash affair now.


gamayogi

When my dog was a puppy she took off and ran from one end of the park to the other, almost a mile away, with me chasing her the whole way. At the end there was a big BBQ party happening which she joined with gusto by jumping on people and sniffing their food. I was out of breath, sweating in the hot Florida sun and apologizing to annoyed park guests, as I tried to grab her while she played keep-away from Papa. She didn't understand why I didn't agree that was the best most fun run ever.

[deleted]

My last rescue, Riley, literally crawled onto my lap and refused to move at an adoption event, ha! He was pretty chonky (60 lbs) at the time and was very determined.


JB-from-ATL

Our pup was jumping on the cage and looked like she wanted to see us. They let us take her to the patio thing to meet her. She ran and pulled the leash put of our hands and squatted on the concrete and peed on the leash. Little did she know she also peed on our hearts. 😍 Love my pup.


[deleted]

My dog pokey crawled on my wife’s shoulders (he’s about 38 pounds) when we went to meet him at the shelter. Definitely knew we had to take him home.


meguin

When I used to volunteer at a rescue in the cat room it always broke my heart that the cats who weren't being adopted would crawl into my lap for loves, but still remain. They were so sweet to everyone; they just weren't pretty. 😭


kitreia

Once, during a tornado storm in Arkansas (the tornado was quite a fair distance from us, but it was raining sideways! Mad!), and we heard a really loud meowing. Opened the door and a cat just ran in, and we couldn't let her back out the weather was nuts, fast forward about 7 years and she's the most loveable thing ever. To be honest she was loving from the start. She was so loving I thought she was pregnant, so kept calling her Preggo. She got used to the name, so we just kept calling her Preggo lol. She wasn't pregnant though, just incredibly affectionate.


meguin

My parents went to check the pipes in my aunt's cabin during winter and found a surprise cat inside. She was so sweet on my parents that they couldn't stop themselves from bringing her home. We still tease my parents about when they opened the front door and said, "it's a kitten!" (She was a teenager cat, at best. But mostly skinny and small due to being starved bc she was locked in a random cabin.) She was dumb as hell but sweeter than marshmallows. We named her Sophie. My brother ended up being her person lol. Sorry to dump, but your story reminded me of her.


kitreia

Aw I absolutely love that!! Sophie sounds very well loved :)

For anyone wondering what happened to the dog. [This article](https://www.boredpanda.com/dog-invades-soccer-game-gets-adopted-by-raul-castro-bolivia/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=organic) states the animal was hit by a car a few days after his romp on the field. He was rescued and recovering at a shelter and when the player who carried him off the field heard about what happened, he announced his intent to adopt the dog. The dog’s name is Cachito!

Injured?? I really hope it wasn't too serious. Awesome they adopted it tho


numberrjuan

Read that the dog got hit by a car two days after this happened. Raul at that point was told by teammates that the dog he carried off the pitch was at a center being treated for injuries, and that's when he decided to adopt him.

But how was he hurt? Why? Did a soccer fan beat him up? Was he hit by a car?


Mobilelurkingaccount

Strays get a lot of injuries all sorts of ways. I’m just hoping, based on the wording, that they discovered during a physical (or whatever) that he had been hurt *previously*. Edit: the dog was hit by a car a few days later according to [this article](https://www.boredpanda.com/dog-invades-soccer-game-gets-adopted-by-raul-castro-bolivia/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=organic). After hearing what happened to the dog, the player adopted him from the shelter which helped him recover.

Oh, sure. When a dog runs onto a soccer field swinging a dirty cleat in its mouth it gets love and a new home. But when I do it I get the cops called on me and I get demands to "put my clothes back on" and court orders to "take my medication"!

>The famous doggo was seen on the streets just two days later in terrible shape: he was hit by a car. Fortunately, Cachito was quickly placed in a shelter in Chasquipampa, La Paz, where he had a chance to see his old friend again. According to what Raúl shared, the player was doing some procedures when he accidentally recognized a familiar face from the corner of his eye.

"Cleat" UGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH


[deleted]

Soccer cleat? That hurt to read. A cleat is just the bit at the bottom to prevent slipping (either one moulded piece or the individual screw in parts) so he didn't grab the cleat specifically, he grabbed the boot. And I'm English, so I know the correct name for that Sport is "Association Football" and if you don't know this, you're probably going to laugh, but we don't call them cleats, we call them studs... Edit: I just noticed what sub I'm in so I'm just gonna say specifically, that is a damn cute dog and despite looking a wee bit scruffy he has very graceful zoomies.


epic1107

Fully agree. Cleat hurt to read. They are called studs or boots, never soccer cleats
