Reddit, what have your pets done that is worryingly smart?

I have a three-month-old pup who got dirt in her eye one day. The eye kept tearing up,

and she held it partially shut for a few hours. During that time, I felt really bad for her and

handed out a lot of treats. Since then, when I am eating, she begs by winking that eye with a tiny whimper.

Her wink is non-stop.

If she's called by someone else in the home, she looks at them with perfect eyes.

I get the quote, broken eye.

Once she gets the goods, fully working eyes.

She is a mix from a stray.

My birds steal batteries out of electronics. Remotes, beard trimmers, fire alarms, you name

it.

They don't do anything with the batteries, just take them out of them laugh at me and dance when

I find them.

Conyers or jerk wads, but I love them.

We had a dockson growing up, and he could tell when my mom was going to have a seizure.

He would start circling her over and over while barking.

Ironically, he ended up with epilepsy himself, but it didn't shorten his lifespan.

They helped each other out.

He lived 17 and a half years.

I miss that dog.

Edited to add, my mom had epilepsy since she was 15. Unrelated to dog, which she got in her 30s. that dog. Edited to add, my mom had epilepsy since she was 15, unrelated to dog, which she got in her
