Many pet owners consider their pets as a part of the family. Though we’re aware that they are a different species, we may not realize that many of our behaviors mirror those of our furry companions. Find out how you and your pet are more similar than you think.
- A Kong is like an ice cream cone for a human. We lick and chew at it until we can get the good stuff inside.
- A Belly rub is like a back massage for a human. We’ll take one any time and it doesn’t matter who’s giving it because it feels so good!
- Squeak toys are like video games. How many times do I have to push this button before the thing dies?
- A walk in the park is equal to a vacation for humans. It’s that awesome place we always want to visit, but circumstances hold us back from going there whenever we want.
- Dental bones are like gummy bear vitamins. Fun to chew, thoroughly enjoyable, AND they’re good for you!
- Their identification tag is like our GPS. We need it to find our way home and without it, we’d be lost.
- People food to pets is like dessert to humans. No matter how much of it we get, we always want more.
- Treats given to multiple pets are comparable to human meals at a restaurant. Once we see what the other guy got, we wish we had it too.
- Digging a hole or scratching a post is like surfing the internet for humans. We don’t always know why we’re doing it, but it keeps us completely entertained.
- A Human hand is like a slot machine. Though we usually get nothing, we keep prodding it in the hopes that something good will come from it.
