hey thanks for this bc my old ass dog is now peeing his bed sometimes. my poor little peepee cutie.
i also agree with people only like cats bc of toxoplasmosis bc i hate my cat, he's so mean to me but i could never throw him in a ditch or into a dump like i see all these other people do on the local news.

i've read it's 10-20 seconds, so you just have to shout quickly.
otoh the dog can chew something up when i'm out and i can come back home hours later and point to the chewed up thing and she knows what she's done. She drops her head and starts cowering and acting sad and sorry. Maybe Im just signalling to her that she did somethng and im mad so she acts the part, and im just an idiot assuming she understands. maybe she doesnt remember doing it but still understands. I dont know. Dogs are good

She knows that when you're around, and there's a bunch of garbage or a chewed thing around, that means you will be upset and maybe punish. She doesnt know she did it. Dogs dont feel guilt.

the dog isn't even that good at making inferences, she is looking at (sometimes tiny) aspects of his body language in order to determine when and whether he's going to yell at her (or feed her or pat her whatnot). dogs are dumb as shit when it comes to making deductive inferences from their environment, but they're literally better at reading people's emotions than people are

snoop dogg did. snoop lion felt it every day of his life.

thats true! sometimes i find my dog hiding in her guilty hangzone spot without my knwoing what she's done yet. if it's been over 20 seconds has she forgotten why she's hiding there?

so what you're saying is that i can train my goldfish to sit up, roll over and shake my hand

I used to have this feather and this piano and when i dropped the piano and the feather at the same time, the piano hit the ground first, mainly because the piano is heavier.

no. the dog associates your arrival at home with your displeasure at the sight of a tore up trash bag or whatever. it hides in a safe spot like a closet or under a table to avoid the reaction it correctly expects from you.
