My goldendoodle puppy doesn't ever want to come back inside. I told my beagle "go get your sister" as I tried rounding up the puppy. Now when I say "go get your sister" the beagle runs to the puppy and baits her into chasing him into the house.

My cat twists his whole body in a very funny way when we are eating chips to ask us to give him some

I guess at some point I made a positive reinforcement without noticing and now he does it all the time

Reminds me of the classic superstition in the pigeon psychological study.

Taught my cat not to use his claws. This was when him and I were playing together one night. The really cool thing about it is he caught a chipmunk one day. And I talked him into letting the chipmunk go by repeating, no claws, no claws!

Accidentally got them to equate turning odd headphones, click sound it makes, with time to go outside

The sound of a teams meeting closing is what triggers mine.

“Nikko, get out of the kitchen” backs up till his feet are over, but still touching, the threshold.

The xbox ding when turning off means I'm getting up. They can be dead asleep, hear the tone, and know they are probably going outside.

I didn't teach her, but one of my dogs turns off the Roomba. She figured out that thwacking the light with her paw stopped it. So anytime it gets near her, instead of moving, she turns it off.
