Dog Wants Statue to Play Fetch
My cat, Martha, loves to play fetch. Any moment when she's not napping, she's dropping one of her many shaky-mice at my feet and asking me to throw it for her. Most of the time, I'm happy to play along. But sometimes I'm trying to relax and watch some "Parks and Recreation," or I might be busy writing this stuff for you folks. Yet Martha is relentless, crying at me until I'm forced into a few minutes of fetch.
Still, I'm not sure Martha's resolve is as strong as this pooch's, determined as it is to get this man to play fetch, despite the fact that he hasn't thrown the stick once, hasn't moved a muscle, hasn't even made eye contact with the dog. Because he's a statue. It's a mystery why the dog can't tell this isn't a human being. Maybe it's anosmic. Maybe it's so excited to play, it's ignoring all sensory indications that this is a large hunk of metal with which it's attempting to engage. Whatever the reasons behind it, this one-sided interaction is a scream to watch.
