Does your dog react to nature documentaries?

[MaryIsA]

Ours has just gone proper sll wooffy watching a wolf chasing an otter. Not entirely sure which one she was rooting for.

Quite wooffy at some distressed looking baby flamingos too.

I’ve had to switch over to the rugby.

All 3 of my animals regularly photo-bomb me when I'm on zoom! The little one (cat) impressed everyone by leaping onto my shoulder from behind and sitting there like a parrot!

One of my cats does, especially when it's birds. She also likes Crufts and seems to enjoy watching the darts when it's on too.

Sometimes if there’s a puppy in distress she’ll look around for it. She’s an ex -breeding dog rescue, so it must stem from that .

On a lighter note, I’ve had to stop watching Richard Osman’s House of Games as their buzzers sound like my doorbell, and she goes flying to the door barking like a hellhound every time someone answers a question

Yes my car used to look behind the tv for birds

Now just happily sits on my lap watching but will watch other programmes too with me

There was an advert for cat food years ago cats were meant to react to mine didn’t

Likes to join in the work MS Teams conversations

My cat
Not my car ...

I like all the cats joining in zoom calls. Our cat's arse has been in a few.

The dog will sometimes head tilt to a cat miaowing on the telly. We must try her on one man and his dog.

Chinese crested dog used to challenge animals on TV, until he realised there were no real animals there.

Never even looks in the TV's direction now.

My cat is a big David Attenborough fan. She particularly enjoyed Planet Earth 2.

My dog loves a nature programme! She also was talking to another teachers dog last week on zoom. Their dog barked and so she had to join in.

I don't have a dog but my cats do enjoy watching animals on the TV. My mum's dog talks when he sees a dog on the TV, and by talk I mean, not barking. It is like a 'roy-roy' sound it is very funny

Years ago, ddog was asleep and I was watching a nature programme about wolves. The wolves on screen started howling, and ddog joined in in his sleep! It was simultaneously funny and creepy as fuck.

He also once dived behind the tv looking for a pheasant he had heard calling on screen - fortunately he managed not to knock it over and realised that tv phessies are no good for finding after that.
