Animals do weird things sometimes to get attention.

When I was growing up, my friend’s dog used to limp all the time so they brought her to see the vet.

The vet told her that there was nothing wrong with the dog and she was limping ON PURPOSE for attention.

Unbelievable.

And this dog is no different.

Her name is Stella and she’s a Golden Retriever who has figured out how to get attention when she feels like she’s not getting enough…she picks up random objects because she knows it’ll make the humans around tend to her.

My dog, Stella, is about a year and a half now and she has developed this habit where if she feels she isn’t getting enough attention, she’ll pick up anything in site to make you tend to her. A photo thread🐶;

Let’s get to know Stella!

1. That’s not your bottle!

I think that means she wants some belly rubs.

2. Her eyes look very mischievous.

She knows what kind of game she’s playing.

3. You’re not brushing your teeth tonight.

Hey! Get back here!

4. I need to make a phone call.

And it’s NOT a local call.

5. Feeling that trucker hat look.

Hopefully she doesn’t chew it to pieces.

6. Is that a missile?!?!

Better be careful with that…

7. I can’t see anything without those!

Okay, this game is getting a little bit ridiculous.

8. At your service.

No, you can’t put that on your dog food!

9. Time to go for a run, I guess.

Can I please have that shoe back?

10. I’m in control of the TV for now.

Anyone wanna watch Animal Planet?

11. Hey, it’s cool. I’m old enough to drink.

Coors Light. Silver Bullet for the win!

Is she adorable, or what?

And it seems like she’s pretty smart, too.

Does your dog or cat do anything really funny to get attention from you?

If so, please tell us about it and share a photo in the comments!
