My bichon/poodle mix has learned the sound of a telephone call. Whether it's vibrating ringing, the ringtone sound, the ringing sound the phone makes when you are calling someone, or just the inflected way that I say "hello" when answering the phone. He even picks up on any of the above sounds on TV, and he seems to be able to differentiate between the short vibrate of a notification versus the long vibration of a ring.
I have a lot of phone anxiety which means I often get up and pace around my apartment a lot when I'm on the phone. He thinks this pacing implies that I want to play with him, so he gets super excited, chases me around, and tries to grab my ankles or jump on the furniture and nip at my fingers. When I want to play with him, these behaviours are cute and fun. But he has associated me walking around my apartment with wanting to play which is distracting and frustrating when I'm already on edge from my phone call anxiety.
My cat twists his whole body in a very funny way when we are eating chips to ask us to give him some
I guess at some point I made a positive reinforcement without noticing and now he does it all the time
Taught my cat not to use his claws. This was when him and I were playing together one night. The really cool thing about it is he caught a chipmunk one day. And I talked him into letting the chipmunk go by repeating, no claws, no claws!
Accidentally got them to equate turning odd headphones, click sound it makes, with time to go outside
The sound of a teams meeting closing is what triggers mine.
F O O D
The xbox ding when turning off means I'm getting up. They can be dead asleep, hear the tone, and know they are probably going outside.
“Nikko, get out of the kitchen” backs up till his feet are over, but still touching, the threshold.
I didn't teach her, but one of my dogs turns off the Roomba. She figured out that thwacking the light with her paw stopped it. So anytime it gets near her, instead of moving, she turns it off.
"Ok" 🙃
