DOGS dream. Scientific research demonstrates comparable brain wave patterns in humans and dogs which validates this assumption. The conclusion is that dreams are part of the normal sleep cycle, and dogs do indeed have them! Arrow, in fact, talks in her dreams. A lot. Fizz takes note, analyzes them and texts those interesting findings to Arrow afterwards. 🐕🐕🦺😴
THERAPIST, a person who treats mental conditions by verbal communication and interaction; a psychotherapist. In these cellphone/texting times, we should double/triple-check what we text before the auto(in)correct (in)corrects us. For example, when you respond to a text question, “Where are you going?” Elaborate and (re)check. Don’t just type “...to therapist.” It may be sent as “...to the rapist.” It happens. 📱🥹📲
DO dogs like baths? Like most answers to grooming questions, it depends on the dog. Some dogs get anxiety when it's bath time, and others are just as happy to jump in a bath of water as they are in a pond or pool. But you should know. You don’t need to visit a dog behaviorist for that query and spend $150. Save the money for another fancy toy for your dog, okay? 🦮🛁🐕🦺
ONE thing common to all drama queen dogs (and hoomans) is that they want you to buy into their drama. So if you start yelling or panicking or getting all worked up when your dog is overreacting, then you will just be fanning the flames. So you two might as well make a Netflix series drama series. Why don’t you stay calm, no matter what. So the cat won’t ridicule you again on Facebook for all the silly drama that you and your dog do, 24/7. You dig? 🐕🥵🐩
WHY is a bank teller called “teller.” The term “teller” is from the Olde English, meaning “to count.” Okay, that makes sense. The person behind the counter “counts” the money that is being exchanged. While customers still call them “tellers,” most financial institutions have moved away from using the term. Fizz The Wiz told me bank tellers are also tellers of tales on Facebook when they are on a coffee break. I guess. 👩💻🧑💻🧑💼
DOGS read more into our tone and body language than our actual words. They focus on us and observe our physical clues to determine what we want them to do or not do. They watch our facial expressions, posture, and body movements. They listen to the tone of our voice. Reason why, lately, there’s been a 75.9 percent spike in depression among dogs. But not with cats. 🐕🥴🐕🦺
CATS are typically very stoic animals, so if your cat suddenly seems to be in distress–howling, crying, tossing the TV remote around–it is a cause for concern. Ching and Fizz aren’t whiner cats though. When Ching wants a backrub, she just cooly walks to the mat, no word, and we take heed. When Fizz wants to play with her spring toy, she calls us out for 3 seconds. Then she quiets down. When both ask how to find a new bird video/show on Netflix or YouTube TV, they send me a text or IM. 😸😼🙀
INTERROGATION, the action of interrogating or the process of being interrogated. In the very near future, police interrogation will be done by an AI that is programmed by a cat. Imagine that! 🗣👤🤖
DOGS read our body language and listen to our tone as we speak to them, which helps them decipher what we are telling them. This indicates that they also use both sides of their brain to understand human words. So yes, dogs are capable of knowing their name and nicknames. Cats though are a lot smarter. They know our names, nicknames, passport names, bitch names, TikTok names, 17 Facebook names, and passwords. 🗣🐕🐈
HIGH MAINTENANCE, of a person or relationship, or dog and cat, demanding a lot of attention and financial/luxury needs. Arrow: “I need 7 more minutes of sniff-sniff time every 30 minute interval on a day’s time. That’d be apart from morning bathroom and afternoon walk and evening bathroom. Ching: “My backrubs should be at 10:30 PM, to the dot. Not a minute late! And I want a larger TV screen for my bird video watch.” Fizz: “Don’t argue, that’s what our AI told us! Just do it!” 🐈👑🐕
