He can be stupid at times

You know, Dante is very smart, for a dog. At least, I like to think so. But every so often, he does something that makes me think he is an idiot.

For an example of the former, he cannot be fooled by noises on the television. If a dog barks, or a cat meows, or just any sound comes out of an electronic device, he does not respond, and I would like to think that it's because he knows the difference between that and reality. Then...

Today we were walking out back in the snow. We walked by a small snowman (about three feet tall), and his hackles immediately went up, and he crouched slightly before slowly approaching the man made of snow. I mean, I know they can be a threat and all, but seriously!?

At least he can still get by on his looks.

Hilarious!

Yesterday morning, my pup was deeply suspicious of an upside-down umbrella. It required almost as much crouching and as many cautious, darting sniffs as the mussel shell she encountered on her first trip to the ocean.
