Our little dog has learned a new thing. Every day I go to the corner convenience store and get a Coke to drink while I'm working. The past few times I took the dog along and got him a little treat while I was inside.
Today I grabbed my 52 ounce cup (refills are cheaper than new drinks), rinsed it out and headed for the door. On the way to the back door I noticed Newbie was dancing at my feet while looking up at the cup. I realized he has learned an association. I said "OK, you can come" and the dance got really wild. I picked him up, carried him to the car and put him in.
As I turned the key to start the engine I happened to be looking in the right direction to see something that surprised me and has me wondering..."was it intentional?"
Newbie put his feet on the passenger side arm rest, poked his nose against the glass, and then did something that was totally unexpected. He looked down, lifted his left leg, and put his foot on the window control button. The window came down and he stuck his head out to take a nice whiff of the day outside.
It had to be a coincidence, right?
Well, yesterday we took him in Michelle's car and he "accidentally" stepped on the button and opened the back seat window and the last two or three times in my truck I've noticed he happens to hit the button that opens the window.
Evil genius or lucky footwork? It leaves me wondering.

Well, that's how he learned to open the door to my bathroom. And now he does it every time.
