heh... that is funny. We used to have a coon hound and he used to do "dumb" stuff like that. The one thing that he constantly did was when he was attached to his lead run outside. He would sit and wait for the deer to come up to the house looking for a handout (yeah I call them and they come running). He would sit on the porch and wait for them to approach. The closer they got the more his body would tremble with excitement and anticipation. He would hold out until they were within 5 feet of him and then he would run after them. Well the dope would forget that he was attached to a lead and just like in the cartoons, he would run full speed until he reached the end of the lead and get jerked back by his neck, all four legs would shoot forward and up into the air and then he would land on his butt, or side with a whoomp. He would do this at least once a day. it was hysterical to watch.
