Tip from an animal behaviorist and long time pet trainer : when you play games of any kind, let them win about 1/3 to 1/4 of the time. That way it's not frustrating, but it's also not boring! It gives them a challenge and sense of excitement and accomplishment when they win, and keeps them interested!
>sense of accomplishment
You don't happen to work for EA, do you?

I loveee going thru that thread and looking at those comments. Those people are seriously pissed off, and for good reason, and they give such valid arguments as to why EA's pay to play then pay to win system is so fucked. The outrage is palpable, and I fucking love seeing ea get reamed.
>Yeah similar to warframe, I don't mind running multiple zones until I get the parts I need, then waiting 12-84 hours for all the parts to finish crafting and combine them. Thats a real sense of accomplishment, since i took something i could have just paid for and earned it instead. EA wants me to pay, and then either pay again or do a whole grind to get to what I've already paid for. Bullshit.
I always do, but it's good to get the word out! I honestly think he's doing this because we do so many brain games so he's used to finding a different solution if he can't get his treat, and because I used to buy doggy-mystery boxes (similar to bark box) and let him open it himself. He's been in to boxes ever since lol. Any package coming in will get the snout push treatment until it's open.
Haha! That's adorable! It's always fun to work with animals who are more clever than average, watching them work out problems differently than expected is so interesting and amusing <3
I taught mine to open his own Christmas presents yeeeeaaars ago. He didn't forget despite there being a year between presents and now every Christmas morning he waits to open everyone's stuff. I'm so glad he waits til he's told to open them or there'd be paper everywhere.
Have you *never* been to this sub or Eyebleach? There are inside jokes on them. Think of it... as Reddit speak. Awww, have you *just* signed up?

Your dog is so adorable! Thanks for the idea. I can’t wait to try this game with my dogs. The youngest one is bored to death. She’s used to getting 3-4 mile hikes a day.
I can highly recommend having a look at brain/puzzle games! There's a lot of things you can make at home from minimal stuff, like simply a box filled with empty toilet paper rolls or paper scraps to scatter food into. There are some harder ones to make which will keep both you and your dogs busy ;)
If you do this one, don't forget to follow the advice of the animal behaviourist somewhere in this thread and let them win/get a bite once in a while.
Honestly that's fair. And if it wasn't 00:47 where we lived right now I would've given him another sausage just for you, but *someone* is already far off into snoozetown

Quit insulting & stunting your pet's intelligence! lol.
When a dog gets f'ed with solely for social media likes I start rooting for the dog to bite the owner.
Alright let me sing my praise about him then.
This dog learns so dang quick it's insane, he'll memorise an easy trick in less than 24 hours. And what he's doing in this video is really showing more of his intelligence, as he's trying to find another way to the treat just as I've encouraged him to do with puzzle toys.
The video was made for my own use, I like creating and keeping memories. However, it turned out to be hilarious so I added some text and posted it to reddit. Figured we can use all the laughs we can get in times of pandemic ;)
That's your American privilege and your thoughts that your the best country in the world even though your 40 years behind Canada in education and healthcare.
Uh, I was just talking about hot dogs. But it is funny that you are bragging about education and can't even use the right form of you're. Thanks for the laugh, idiot.
P.S. I happen to love Canada. I have friends and family there and visit BC at least once a year. I love my country too, but I know we're not the best. We do some things better and we do some things worse, just like your country. I'm not some red hat wearing simple minded moron and I definitely don't brag about my countries accomplishments that I had nothing to do with nor do I pathetically try to insult someone else for their countries short comings that they had nothing to do with. I was just making a joke. Lighten up, buddy, you'll enjoy life more.
You are required by law to give him the sausage
Rest assured, for he has gotten not one, but TWO sausages for his efforts
Good. Because if not, you and I were gonna have words.
PLEASE NOT WORDS. I SWEAR HE GETS SAUSAGES EVERY DAY
Tell me more about these... Sausages...
I'll give him one right now if you put the words away!
Dude just put the words down, no need to do this
HES GOT WORDS
Ohboiohboiohboi
#WORDS
GET DOWN MR PRESIDENT
Ask not what words you have for your country but what words does your country has for you.....
LOOK OUT, HES GOT A WORD!
He’s got a spoon!
FBI OPEN UP
This whole comment chain, r/nocontext
That's what she said
Tell me more about the rabbits, George.
Words like "You"!, and "are"!, and "a jerk"!
NI!
N I
MS OBAMA GET DOWN
But didn't you both give words to each other on this thread?

what kind of dog? handsome pup!
Thanks! He's half golden, about a quarter husky and the rest is a mutt-stery!
He reminds me a little of a leonberger.
You'd be surprised at how often people tell me that. However, leonberger would've definitely shown up in the DNA test, so unfortunately no leo here
Phew
Good pet parent! I'm proud of you
Nobody ever gives me sausage. :(
/r/NoContext
This is really great! I laughed so hard i got the hiccups. That is some grade-A problem solving.
That is a smart doggo there
Happy cakeday!
Thank you & happy cake day!
Happy cake day!
Happy cake day
Lmao, great reaction at the end.
It's like the dog equivalent to flipping the monopoly board
I saw a video of a dog playing connect 4 and when the human beat him he just slammed the game down with his paw lol

HOOOOLY SHIT look at those downvotes goddamn that is hysterical
That right there is offically the most downvoted comment on reddit
Helped by the fact that people kept gilding it so it stayed a top comment even though it had so many downvotes.
Oh! It's that why they were doing it? I always assumed it was just for the irony.
And they cancel some. This is the fifth time I downvote that. EDIT: I had to downvote again, my vote disappeared 10 hours after this comment.
Anyone know how that EA account has 12k comment karma with all those downvoted comments? Mobile bug or only reporting positive votes?
So, my understanding is that at a certain point the downvotes just revert to zero. Or something?
Good enough for me

How tf is their comment karma still 12k+???
Pretty sure there's a cap on how much a single comment can actually remove from your karma. Not sure how much it is though.

I cheered when they flipped the box over! get that sausage!
“I’m gonna flip the table!”
Smart pupper.
He's not entertaining for you lol
*He's* starting to feel the effects quarantine has on *me* It usually involves more sausage and less teasing tho ;)
what kind of dog? looks like a mix? beautiful!
Hot dog obviously
Not hot dog
Part golden part something else..op please tell us!!
Part golden indeed! Half golden, about 25% husky and the rest is more mutt
Such a good looking dog! IMO goldens mixed with other breeds gives the cutest combos. Golden Shepherd's are downright beautiful.
Oh I thought they were a golden, leon berger :)
Sausage? Dont church it up, that's a hot dog.
It's a frankfurter ;)
This is the equivalent of flipping the table. But I hope he still wins sausage so he keeps playing!
Happy cake day! He sure has won some sausage!
Thank you, this made me laugh harder than I have since quarantine
Thank *you* for the compliment <3
Good boi is too smart for your games.
This dog aint taking yo shit
The bamboozle was good. But you did try the good boy's patience, hooman...!
Why are you speaking like you have brain damage
Have you *never* been to this sub or Eyebleach? There are inside jokes on them. Think of it... as Reddit speak. Awww, have you *just* signed up? (P.S. - Learn what "YTA" means.)
Is that an English Sheppard?
He's half golden, about a quarter husky and the rest is unknown. But thanks for making me google English Shepherd, they look awesome!

WHATS IN THE FUCKING BOX?!
Then you stick your dick in there
...if I had one
Gib to he
That's a fucking hotdog don't lie
Joke's on you it's actually a frankfurter
What's the difference?
Wow this was very entertaining and cute 😊
Thanks for the laughs.
My pleasure :)
I have neither seen nor heard British Knights in 30 years. Wow had no idea they were still around.
He tried a bamboozle of his own 36 seconds in!
Your doggo is a genius!
Heck this <3 I’m gonna use that when I swear now. Lovely commentary, you’re funny hooman. Thanks for this u/retarded_wolf 😆😅😂
Relevant username.
r/dontputyourdickinthat
They still sell British knights. Next stop ebay!
Oh my god that was funny
My dogs is too lazy to do that. She will not work for her food.
Haha reminds me of my time in the Navy
Username checks out
My dog ran over the box and tackled me, started licking my face. Didn’t even see the damn hot dog.
I love to see dogs’ problem-solving skills.
Your dog is so adorable! Thanks for the idea. I can’t wait to try this game with my dogs. The youngest one is bored to death. She’s used to getting 3-4 mile hikes a day.

the squishy snout makes me happy 🥺
British Knights! I bet those were some sweet kicks!
yeeting the box at the end really sealed it
Pupper: Down with the system!
I have a dachshund and I refuse to let him eat hotdogs or sausages of any kind. Don’t think I don’t know how mad cow disease started.
I'm crying laughing over here thanks for this!
That was my goal, so thank you!
Downvoted for not filming him get the sausage. Come on. You know what we want.
Honestly that's fair. And if it wasn't 00:47 where we lived right now I would've given him another sausage just for you, but *someone* is already far off into snoozetown
I play hide-the-sausage with my own dog all the time.
I love that you can tell the exact moment he got fed up.
If I had a platinum or gold to give you I would. That gave me so much joy to watch.
Thank you, even for just telling me you enjoyed it. That makes me really happy :)
Smart doggo
[удалено]
I believe this was a challenge a while ago, but I don't know the exact name. Definitely wasn't my original idea lol
Dogs are a hell of a lot smarter than cats, that’s for sure.

Nothing against you personally, just these types of videos. I've seen too many of them apparently.
Well I know what else to put in those holes * unzips *
Only an American would call a hot dog a sausage lol
I'm from the UK I would call that a sausage.
It's a hot dog dude!
Never heard an American call it a sausage... ever. Source: I'm American. But a hot dog is a type of sausage.
I'd actually call it a *knakworst* but I don't think many people would understand that
I am pretty sure that is a sausage. You know a sausage link.
Americans don't call hot dogs sausages. We do, however, call people like you idiots.
That's your American privilege and your thoughts that your the best country in the world even though your 40 years behind Canada in education and healthcare.

That’s the third gayest thing I’ve seen today... Fucking bored quarantine ppl
Weirdly enough, I find new ways to interact with, entertain and enrich my dog even when not in quarantine.
The 90s called, they said they want their outdated homophobic lingo back. :)
