Adorable Dog Wants To Be Wrapped In A Blanket

Dogs are the only animals who love to burrow in blankets, and it is believed that they do so to display their heritage of driving small animals away from their homes by burrowing. Pet experts also believe that dogs are denning creatures, and it is instinctive to them to relax or sleep in a small and protected area to feel safe and warm. This can also explain why most dogs prefer their crates when they are left at home alone or to sleep at night. Dogs just need a comfortable, sturdy bed along with a couple of towels, and they can burrow their make-believe tunnel.

The small dog species who are fond of burrowing are the dachshund and terriers. While the bigger dogs are the Huskies, who survive in extreme temperatures and burrow under the snow to stay warm. This behavior is pertinent to their survival in such cold temperatures. Other dogs love to burrow as well, regardless of their breed.

This behavior is also a sign of hunting instincts in dogs as they like to bury valuables and use them later. It may also be a sign of anxiety, but such behavior is very normal and should not be a cause for alarm.

The dog below wanted to be wrapped in the blanket so he can begin burrowing, but he had no way of telling his owner. The adorable mutt decided to give his owner a sign so she could cover him with the blanket. He got up and began to make a high pitched sound to let his owner know he wanted to be covered up. Immediately the owner of the dog, who was also videoing the pet, got up and went to pick up the blanket. The dog saw her and followed suit, he got up from the floor and allows her to place the blanket on the floor, and he quickly got on the blanket.

He turned around for a couple of times before choosing the best position that suited him on the blanket. He picked the far end since he wanted her to use the other part to cover him up. The dog’s owner covered him up and looked so comfortable with his make-believe den. He thanks his owner by wagging his tail and licking his paws, and she has allowed him to show his instinct.

Golden Retriever takes his favorite blanket everywhere

According to his owners, this Golden Retriever named Otus drags his blanket out of the bedroom, and takes it outside with him to lay on every single morning! He’s just about mastered the technique of walking without stepping on the blanket. He started doing it when they moved into their new house in March 2014. The family adopted him from the Larimer County Humane Society in April 2012. Nobody knows his age since he arrived at the Humane Society as a stray, but their veterinarian thinks he’s around 9-years-old.

She Covers Her Dog With A Blanket And A Then New Creature Appears LOL

Have you ever had a “hair-raising experience”? That may be due to static electricity. Static electricity is the result of the imbalance between the positive and negative charges in objects. For example, when you rub certain materials against one another, you can transfer the electrons of one object to the other, resulting in the imbalance of negative charges.

That is exactly what happened in the video below! The woman covers her dog with a blanket and rubs it all over her dog. When she stands up to remove the blanket, her furry friend had that “hair-raising experience”! You can see the dog’s hair standing straight up due to static electricity! The electrons were transferred from the blanket to the dog’s hair. And because objects of the same charge repel each other, the strands of the dog’s hair are trying to get far away from each other. Amazing, right?

That’s quite an interesting hairdo you have there, doggy!

Well there you go! That’s static electricity at work! You learn something new everyday!
