My husband and I would take our 10wk old puppy potty without a leash to see how obedient he was. H would prance/walk right beside our feet constantly looking up at us and following our movements and our pace.

It always wasn't a good thing. Our poor baby was walking right beside us while stepping off the curb. As soon as we knew it, we saw him falling face forward off a curb that was almost as tall as him. He started crying, and luckily he was okay. We felt so bad, but it his clumsiness didn't stop there. heheh.

My husband and I was tossing a large beach ball around, my husband called out his name and tossed the ball high into the air towards him, assuming he'd move. He admired it instead while it was coming at him... doopty-doo. It hit him right on the snout, and he cried a bit but was okay. I can't help but think what was he thinking? Why didn't he move? hehe.

As a puppy he would lay on his back with his arms folded and his feet paw to paw pointed like ballet dancer. He also loves being carried like a baby, belly to belly, his arms on your shoulder. Now that he's 50lbs he still squeezes himself snout first into our arms. He is such a big baby, but so smart with picking up all the tricks we taught him.

We taught him to fetch only with the command 'go get it'... no matter how far or how long ago you threw it. Every now and then we'll pretend we forgot and watch him as he belly crawls for the ball, he'll pretend that he's just waiting when you look at him even if he's already 10ft away. He'll belly crawl like Marley when eating, just to get his ball. Hehhe. I love my Sammie!

Answer 2

My friend's dog, Max, used to chew up toys terribly! My parents bought him a squeaky toy for Christmas and by Boxing Day it was in pieces under the dining table!

His funniest moment was when he was in the park with Dave, his 'grandad', and he grabbed another dog's toy, took it into the bushes and absolutely decimated it! It was up to Dave to pay to replace it!

Answer 3

Hi,
It was heavily raining outside and my cat was underneath the car and we couldn't get her inside the house. So my dad decided to go and get some cat treats that she adores and we all started to call her name and rustle her treats. As we were doing this she zoomed inside the house and went straight past me and my dad in a straight line and ended up whacking her head on the patio door at full speed! It was hilarious to all of us and it was the funniest family pet moment that I can remember!

Answer 4

Hi Jennifer,

It's the most FANTASTIC PET family moment i ever heard:
It was with my mother, when she was single, but as she is my mother, well i guess is family: She had a Fox Terrier, Tico, very smart and friend of all in the house. But he had some strange intelligent attitudes to a dog to have:
- When my Granny was doing rice, just when the rice was at the right point, Tico barked to my granny.
- Tico didn't allow children to cross the road without looking both ways and see if any car was coming
- This incredible dog, every Sunday, was going to the church with my mother's family and rest quiet and calm during the mass. Later the priest forbid that. Still, Tico always waited outside the church very patient and quiet.
- During the WWII, although Portugal wasn't invaded by Germany, there was a danger of bombings by air. So everybody in Lisbon was ready for the luftwaffe bombings. During the most critical months, my mom told Tico that the Germans would throw bombs at night and every night Tico was waiting at the terrace, looking to the sky, maybe guarding the house.
- Despite all it care about the road, one day, already old, Tico was hit by a car, and lost an eye. That day, was the first people saw him cry.
One year later, one morning, Tico barked to everybody to call for attention, and when all there with them, he lyed down and died.

It was never forgotten.

Answer 5

The funniest pet moment is hard to choose! Animals are beautiful and very entertaining creatures. To decide who is funniest between my dog, a Siberian-Husky/German Shepherd named Hailey, and my cat, a white and orange fluffy tabby cat named Simba, is very hard! I think my bundle of fur takes the cake when he, Simba, got entangled in the ends of my valentine's day balloons. The end of the string of the balloon somehow got attached to Simba's tail and he was running around the house with an I love you balloon hanging above him. What is even funnier was when he tried to climb the string to get to the top of the balloon and when he kept chasing his tail :) It was hilarious to watch. Both my boyfriend and our cat wished me a Happy Valentine's Day :)

btw - marley and me made me laugh and cry so hard :) it reminded me of my dog i had since i was born til i was in 8th grade (she died of old age)

Answer 6

It would be hard for me to pin-point the funniest family pet moment. In a household with 4 cats and 2 rabbits, things get funny all the time, and double-takes are often necessary to find out which cat is the one flipping out and turning the house into a race track.
But if I had to pick just one, it would have to be the night my demon kitten (now a loveable full grown demon) decided he was going to attack me from under the desk. At the time the desk was at the foot of the bed and we were able to lay on the bed and play on the computer. Anyways, there was a gap about 2 inches from where the foot board on the bed didn't meet the lowest point in the desk where you put your legs. There was an amp (part of the modified car stereo) sitting in that space cuz the desk was never used right. Well demon kitten decided he was going to jump up on the amp and stick his paws through the gap and get the arm that could be seen. It was hilarious cuz I didn't know what was attacking me other than it looked like the paw of my kitten and had claws. When he couldn't reach his target, he stuck his face up to the gap and all that could b seen was the tip of a paw and one yellow eye. It was so funny, and until the desk was moved, he loved attacking people using the computer through that gap. He would even try to attack the feet of my ex, which didn't work when my ex learned of demon kittys antics.

I got my little Princess from someone who treated her bad. I made a choice to ask the owners if I can raise her. They were glad I would take her they neglected her so much. Princess Cookie, is getting better and does not run from people any more.
" I think it is the funniest thing when a fire truck siren goes on she likes to holler by her self. It's funny when I am in the room she hears it and runs to the window, but she will not holler till I do it with her. I start telling her "Your a good singer and sje get all happy" Thank you for loving your pet. Sk8er George

When I was little kid my mom had a dog named Friskey. My absolute hilarious moment with this dog was when i shined the flash light on the wall, he would jump at it and bark and just go crazy trying to figure out what it was. Another pet that i have currently is a bird and if someone go to close to the cage it spreads its wings and looks like it's saying "Whats up!?" me and my friend laugh pretty hard at that one too.

Answer 9

My grandmother's sheltie is a howler. My grandma always has a cat or two, and when she calls the cats in at dusk, the dog howls. It started with a cat name Chloe. Now if you say Chloe, Louie (another cat), Blossom, or Walter (more cats) or really anything with two syllables and in a sing song voice, he howls.

Sometimes I walk in and say "where's Louie?" in a normal and he will get all excited and start barking and whining for me to lead him into full-blown howling.

He also does a funny thing where he stands outside at the corner of the house and barks at the roof and spins in circles under it.

Answer 10

Are you really Jennifer Aniston?
Or her publicist/a fan/person wanting to be her?

Anyway, my funniest pet moment was when my little sister got her first guinea pig, Patchy (she was pretty young so the mane was quite basic) and it loved to st on her head...
Anyway, my Dad tried the same trick and sure enough, Patchy climbed ono his head, where he then proceded to urinate on my Dad!

Answer 11

My Mom and I were playfully arguing about who was a bigger idiot and then we both turned to our little Cuckatoo:
Mom: Leyla, she's an idiot isn't she?!
Leyla: *nod nod nod*
Me: Leyla, SHE'S an idiot isn't she?
Leyla: *nod nod nod*
Mom: *points at me* But she's a bigger idiot!
Me: *points at Mom* No, she is!!!
Leyla: *stares for a moment* Iiiiidiots! *then turns her back on us*

I always crack up when I remember a two year old bird being more mature.

Answer 12

I have a six month old golden lab like marley and he is so naughty!
his favourite thing to do is steal cushions, he will pretend he's being good and he'll be laying in front of the sofa chewing on a bone or something and then suddenly he'll get up really quickly, steal a cushion and run round the back of the sofa to hide. He will then wait until you come to rescue the cushion and then at the last second he'll run away so that you're both running round the sofa in circles.
He also likes to hump my dad's leg, despite not doing it to anyone else and he loves stealing underwear from the bedrooms!
Oh and we also have reclining chairs so when they're up he will attempt to sneakily climb up without you noticing and then proceeds to fall off again with a loud thud.
There are too many naughty things to list!



Oh and finally, Mustard and obediance classes....probably the funniest but probably most embarassing thing to happen would be when he was really young and he decided to do his ..ahem.. business right in the middle of the hall. It was typical that he made it extra special in terms of smell.

Answer 13

Hi Jen - you rock!

Yes we had a funny thing with our family cat. A cat kept coming into our garden and we thought it was the neighbours cat so we kept throwing it back over the fence (not a high fence!). Then our neighbour would get really annoyed and throw it back.

After about 3 times of angry throwing the cat back and forth over the fence between neighbours we realised it was a stray so we kept it as our family pet.

Answer 14

A friend who happens to be a remote controlled aircraft enthusiast decided that for extra realism his plane needed a pilot. He put his sisters pet hamster in the plane and sent it skywards. The plane got caught in a cross wind and he lost control, the plane came down in a hedgerow. He ran to the plane fearing the worst but when he got there the canopy to the **** pit was off and the hamster was no where to be found, freedom being the more attractive option.

Answer 15

My funniest pet moment was about 10yrs ago while my Dad, Mom, my 2 black cats and I were moving. I had my 2 cats, Willy, a small black short-hair and Billy, a rather large black short-hair with no tail (that's another story, lol!) in a cat carrier. Well Billy did NOT want to move! As the car started moving, Billy started rolling around on top of Willy meowing, "Nooooo..... Nooooooo..... I Doooooh Waaaaaana, I Dooooooh Waaaaaaana....." We were all in shock because the cat was actually talking!! It was very funny, one of those wish i had a video camera moments!

Answer 16

funniest? I had a yellow lab named Sam when I was a kid. He loved to go fishing. He would jump in the water grab a fish and then run out and drop it on the bank. He did that twice and the third time he came out of the water yelling, a fish caught him. It was latched onto his tail, he started spinning in circles chasing it. It was the funniest family pet moment I have ever had.

Answer 17

Hello :) Happy to see you on Yahoo Answers.
Um the funniest pet moment in my house happened just a few nights ago, when my cat started licking and cleaning my dog 5 times the size of the cat ,, it was so cute she was purring and was just so happy and you should have seen my dog he was as happy as ever wagging his tail and panting.
Well thats mine.

Answer 18

The funniest moment I can think of involved my family's pet snake and Pomeranian. I was holding my Ball Python in the family room, and I really enjoy seeing how our 2 dogs react to the unfamiliar reptile being in their presence. Usually it's quite amusing! Typically they just stare at the snake with a blank yet somewhat confused look and don't really know what to think, but once our little black and tan Pomeranian "Poppy" decided to come up to the snake and smell it.

Being interested in the dog also, our Python "Marcia" slowly drooped down from the chair to greet Poppy. Their noses finally made contact with one another for a few seconds until Marcia's tiny tongue came out to smell Poppy (snakes smell via their tongue). Then Poppy freaked out and quickly jolted backyards away from the snake! Then we all laughed from this silly incident!

Answer 19

I wish I still had Kirby :'[

I'm 13 - and my dog got re-homed and Imiss him more & more everyday.

He was a funny dog he was :L
Like, if he sneezed once he wouldn't be able to stop and snot would go all over his face! Lol
He was a fery rude dog.
He would fart and burp and snort too Lol - But I love him <33

He is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and he is now 3, he left a few months ago.

I miss him soooo much <33

Such a funny little dog. He would sit like a frog with his legs and arms all spread out flat on the floor :L and if you went to brush him he would roll over for you to rub his belly! He loved his belly being rubbed :)

Can't think of the funniest moment, as their were so many. But 2 of the funniest moments with my Kirby boy is when I got stuck under the coffee table (dont ask! Lol) and he came under and was barking in my face and kept licking my face and I couldn't get out so he came behind me and started sniffing my bottom! :L
Or when he was a puppy and me and my mum were seeing how he would get on sleeping on my bed but I couldn't sleep cos he kept flinging his teddy around, standing on my face, farting, licking me and sneezing everywhere!

Good times :)

The funniest moment was when my Chocolate Labrador Chucky took our pinata! We were hitting a pinata outside and all of a sudden my dog grabbed it with his mouth yanked it off the rope and took it with a bunch of candies and goodies inside. We were all chasing the dog because the pinata had money inside lol it was crazy.

Answer 21

Hello!
Well here's the story:
Back in the 80's I had a pet parakeet named Tweeter. He lived in a bird cage by himself for many years, although he had plenty of attention and love from his human and feline family. He also had a mirror and would say "Oooh Tweeter! You're such a pretty boy!"

Then, on a snowy afternoon around 1993, we saw a yellow thing in a tree outside our house. It looked funny and we wondered what it was. Upon closer inspection I could see it was a yellow parakeet! There were crows flying around above her and it was freezing outside. She wouldn't survive long unless we could get her inside.

We were able to catch her in our hands and miraculously she survived. We couldn't locate her owners so we decided to keep her and Tweeter finally had a mate, and we called her Tweety!

Sadly, both of them passed away a fews years later - only 2 weeks apart.

BTW - thanks for your question! ;)

Answer 22

Among my cymric kittens' many names, one of them is not grace. She literally is a little furry ball anyway so by virtue of her design she has some very cute moments. She was lounging at the top of the stair landing one morning and she rolled over to let me scratch her belly. In doing so she miscalculated her positioning and couldn't correct herself. She started rolling down the stairs and I had that combination feeling of "oh my gosh, no" and "that is too funny for words" mixed in with some guilt and a lot of laughter. You know , that feeling only a pet parent can feel. Oh, the look that she gave me. Luckily only went down one step but it was enough to annoy her and totally put me into giggles. Poor little thing-of course, there will be payback, I am sure.

Answer 24

I think the funniest pet moment happened when my mom had left my sister's birthday cake on the kitchen table while all of our friends and family went outside to take pictures. When we all came back inside, my dog, Rufus, was on the table with vanilla icing on his mouth and the cake was in a million pieces. We all went out for ice cream instead. Ha ha.

Answer 25

Well I think one of my funniest family pet moments would have to be with my Love-able puppy Amore (Amore is a big black puppy who has definitively sheppard features, and the muscle definition of a boxer close to 80-85lbs). (This happened recently) Amore who is a Boxer-Sheppard mix (not exactly small) and I were at the park playing with his favorite ball. I threw the ball several times and off Amore went to fetch his ball, after 5 or 6 times of this, I see Amore come running back toward me (as usual) with his ball tightly clenched in his teeth. As he gets closer I realize he doesn't seem to be slowing down, even though he is running straight for me. Though I had seen him coming right for me, I swear it was out of nowhere (quite the shock actually) he barreled into me at mach 10 not only taking out my legs but knocking them clean out from under me, with such force, he knocked my legs up over my head backwards, I did a backward ariel somersault and face planted, I hit the dirt and Amore jumped right on top of me, flopped down and happily started gnawing on his ball. Every time I tried to get up Amore would happily pounce on me and smother me with his wet sloppy kisses (which is so much fun). It took me surrendering all the treats I had in my pocket for his walk to convince him I was truly going to surrender. I love him!!

Answer 26

OMG the funniest thing ever, though I do wonder if you HAD to be there lol.
My dog loves water and as soon as he sees it he goes bounding into it but tends to stick to the shallow end.... this one day, he ran off towards a lake he'd never been to before and jumped in obviously thinking it was a shallow lake like the others - he went completely under, and popped up again and propped his front paws on the wooden pier - eyes open wide, and looking to me to drag him out! It looked so funny, and him so pitiful, that even while I was dragging him out by his collar, I was completely belly laughing, and even after 1 year I still find it so funny. What a daft dog!

Answer 27

When I was in my teens we owned a boxer dog named Karl. He was a fantastic friend and had some wonderful habits. One of them was to climb up on the back of the chair where my father would be resting and sit on his head. Another of his habits was to fart the most awful smells and once a week my mother used to hold a whist game with three lady friends and Karl would invariably lie down under the card table and let off the most smelly fart and then creep away whilst the four players were sniffing and look around for the culprit. Karl weighed about 60 lb and it was so funny when we went for a walk, Most dogs would enjoy climbing over low fences etc but not Karl. He would sit down, look at me and give me a nudge and I would then have to pick him up and carry him over the obstacle.

I also had a pet white rat called Freddie who was the cleanest little thing I have ever known. He had his own little patch and would pee and poo in exactly the same place all the time. I had to clean his patch every day or he would complain. His favourite trick was to creep up inside my father's trouser leg when he was having a rest and re-enter some where around his chest. He would sit there on his hind legs and peel grapes for his own consumption.

Answer 28

Hi. My Cat Misty (slagpuss) was asleep on my lap when I got one of those itches, in the inner thigh area, not wanting to wake Misty up I gently put my hand down the inside of my trousers to scratch the itch (well you would) at that moment Slagpuss work up and seeing something moving she decided to sink her teeth into whatever it was, she missed my hand and sank them into my, er sort of man bit, I to say the least let out with a loud, O dear me (spelt With 3 f's) or something like that, and the tears started to flow, my wife and son just fell about laughing and poor old Misty did a vertical takeoff from my lap and became the fastest ***** in the world as she left the room. I was in little pain but got not one bit of sympathy from my beloved family, they did not stop giggling for a long long time. The good news is that Misty reappeared a little later and jumped on my lap again to sleep.

We have 7 dogs in total. Sometimes the funniest moments are when they sit on the armchair and look at you and their eyes say "Where's my tea then" or my favourite " When we going for a walk then lazy ar##". Alot of people think that dogs lack expression, but when you love them they come comepletely out of their shell and show sides to their personality that only a dog owner would know.

Congratulations on a fantastic career!!!!!!!!!!!

Me and my family were throwing a doll kitten around the house and our kitten decided to go after it. She grabbed the doll in her mouth and threw it into the air and jumped up for it and flipped while grabbing the doll. It was the funniest cutest moment we've seen our kitten do. We also tilted our heads then she looked at us and tilted her head too.
