Anybody else's dog watch tv intently?

[Uncle_Moose]

Or is it just this fuzz nuts?

My lab will completely ignore it 90 percent of the time but get memorized on tv the other 10%

One could care less. The other only cares when an animal shows up on the screen.

This is the first rottie I've had that cares about fetch above all else. Ill put golf on the TV and he whines whenever they close up on a ball rolling down the fairway.

 

[Billy Goat]

If birds are on TV, otherwise he doesn't care.

We have 1 that will intently watch anything, 2 that could careless- unless a doorbell rings on a TV show...

Years ago my wife and I had a white dove as a pet that she rescued in the yard when it couldn't fly. We built it a 4-foot cube cage on stilts that was just short of the ceiling. We'd leave the full door open after it got its flight back. That stupid bird would fly out, land on my lap, and then climb onto my hand and settle down on it and watch football with me. If I got bored with it sitting there and shove it off, it would fly up and then sit on the ceiling fan to watch the games or regular TV. I'd turn the TV off and it would fly back in its cage and hang out on a perch. We never allowed dogs in the house.

Yup, she’s been into watching Tv since she was a puppy. Our tv broke awhile back and it took me a couple months for my wife to convince me to go get another one. The dog would come in the house in the evening and sit down and look at the black screen and then back at me like “what the hell man?!” She is always interested in shows with animals and especially birds, but she’ll get locked into random stuff too. Watching her watch tv is usually more entertaining than the show itself.

Yeah my husky barks at any animal on tv and watches pretty closely in general. One time, my relative fell asleep on the couch watching tv and around 2:00 am started awake because my dog barked at some dog commercial

Yup my late dog loved bird hunting shows on TV, especially waterfowl because of the calling. I think he loved hunting more than I do.

 

[Kindo]

Absolutely!

My golden retriever will watch TV intently, the worst is when there is a show on with animals, then he and our lab will bark like crazy and lose their minds most of time. It's interesting to watch that if it is a prey animal on tv they are much more apt to just watch and observe, but if there is a predator, there is much more aggression and much quicker.

My lab will go nuts when there is turkey hunting on. She could care less about any other animal

 

[tcpip95]

Our two Schnauzers do. The little guy is especially attentive when there are dogs on the screen. We watched Benji the other night and the two of them were locked on the show barking and going crazy.

 

[Gutshot007]

Any dog that watches "The outlaw josey wales" certainly has good taste in entertainment

 

[GSPHUNTER]

Nope my dogs are like me, they don't watch it because there is nothing worth watching, Smart dogs.

My Jack Russel is one year old. Any hunting show with animals is interesting to her. The bigger the animal on the screen the more excited she gets. She gets "tore up" when I watch predator hunting and the coyotes are howling. She pays almost no attention to non-wildlife people shows.

 

[MJB]

I can't watch westerns with out my Jagd barking at any animal......even cartoon characters

Birds she holds quietly then stalks they

We were watching the Kentucy Derby one year, Spark, my old JRT became very interested and the went and looked behind the tv. Once he did that and decided it wasn’t real he lost interest. It was hilarious watching him though.
