Reminds me of the Sesame St clip where the kid finds his dog Sparky is being the 'shadow monster'. ....good night mum good night Dad, good night Sparky 😅😅😅
Yes, that's known as the "Clever Hans" effect. Basically animals will respond to subtle cues from their owners, but that does not prove they know numbers or counting in the way we do.
@@tigressnsnow she lost no time with that treat after he barked as long as she wanted him to. At least she's able to count to ten (and fool a lot of people with such an easy trick)
@@comfortablydumb1681 Obviously. We see how it stops, and then starts again. There was no cue, so... But dogs actually can do more than that. But only if there is proper training. Recently I have seen that button training, every button speaks a certain word or sentence. really really impressive.
This video brings back memories of the first time I saw this! I laughed so hard and so long over Bailey (and Dave's reaction!) Bailey was the dog that inspired me to teach my own dog to play dead!
Our OWN dog, Niles, learned how to play us. His "Treat Time" was 9:30 at night, and, he would walk over to each of us, in separate rooms, and act like he didn't get his treat. We FINALLY caught on, after a while.
after last dog's trick, the owner isn't paying attention to Dave's handshake proposal. So Dave - normally- does a handshake with the dog's leg at 9:20 The geniusness of David Letterman in 3 seconds
Aw, that's nothing! my boy Baldurdash is so smart, when the sign says _WET FLOOR_ he does! Anybody who doesn't think dogs can count, take three treats out of the jar and just give him two.
As a dog trainer, I think I figured out the barking trick. The dog continues to bark for as long as she holds the card. When she makes a little signal that she's going to put the card down, the dog stops barking.
I'm sure. Not really a "Pet Trick", but we were able to teach our dog Lanny where to go & stop while walking on Corners and Stop Lights. She had gone blind, and, possibly deaf as well. Tap her on each shoulder to show her where to turn, and her chest to get her to stop.
No way! That dog went on to become a CPA before dying when he tried to bark the national debt amount he saw in an outdoor someplace. He made it to 29 trillion before running out of time.
I'm pretty sure the counting dog just keeps barking until its master takes away the card. I mean the counting wouldn't be as impressive as the dog actually reading the numbers.
@@Ken_Brooks yep 🙂 pretty sure there's a subtle sign to stop. certainly not impossible though, that it could learn bark the number, it's just symbols. thinking of it, that could be cool project to teach my dog! (not barking, but maybe press a button such many times or something)
Bailey the Beagle has remained a classic favorite. I love how he comes alive too soon to see if his treat is there and goes back to 'dead' again.
The dog is a “she” but yes I agree.
@@naturequeene132 Perhaps Bailey is pansexual and wishes to be called 'they'.
@@poetcomic1 Bailey's a "she", numb nutz.
@@naturequeene132 You're a poet but don't know it.
@@checkfactschecking haha I love this comment thank you. I think you may be right. Even funnier considering the username of the original commenter.
Dave going in for a handshake and ending up shaking Bailey's foot at 9:15 was great 😂
There is no human hand, dog hand is okey.
😂
Thank God it's a female dog😂
Yessss
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Saw it too 😂
That wasn't Bailey's foot that Dave was shaking...
Bailey remains my favorite ever Stupid Pet Trick. All of the timing was impeccable - and she slayed Letterman too. Comedy gold.
Same she was my favourite, funny trick too.
LOL! Watching Dave's reaction and listening to him laugh was almost better than the Stupid Pet Trick.
"Is that long enough? Can I have snackos now? No? Okay, how about now? 🥺"
It was the best I've seen! And a good laugh out loud trick 🤣
Why didn't he put her down though to play dead?
1. I love that David asked before petting the first dog
2. I love that his voice changed the minute he started to pet Sparky 😍
It's the doggo code! I'm not a dog owner (yet) but I go full tard when a floofer is all up in my grill :P
Reminds me of the Sesame St clip where the kid finds his dog Sparky is being the 'shadow monster'. ....good night mum good night Dad, good night Sparky 😅😅😅
A true dog lover 😂
I have always had a soft spot for a man who has good manners with pets
Being able to make David Letterman chuckle like a kid is something special.
This was before Dave started having issues.
I love Bailey especially when he's dead and checks for treat back to dead again hilarious love him
He may play dead, but he's not that dead to ignore food.
The guy holding Bailey was just as funny as she was. He had a deadpan humour that worked perfectly with her play dead routine.
Why the gay flag
Lol absolutely 😀
Why not ?
He sounded like James franco lol
@@larezzatruman8097 'cause it's weird
My late dog's name was Sparky too. We had a friendship and companionship that lasted 14 years. I gave him a good life. Fond memories
May you always be healthy so that you can treasure his memory... 🙏🙏🙏
My family had a Sparky, too! He was an all black mutt, and he was so happy and lovey! Bless you for giving your Sparky a full and loving life.
I'm glad to hear y'all had a great life together
Bailey is smart enough to realize that if he's dead too long he might not get his treat in the afterlife.
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😘
Yup 😂😂😂
SHE. Owner said it's a female.
Bailey is a good girl
There's never been another late night show as good as this one.
I did like the late show with letterman.
@@nedraleggett6837 Johnny Carson
Carson and Letterman were both incredible.
Conan
@@Pango5697 I thought he sucked. He was just strange and bizarre. Not funny.
Makes me wonder if Bailey ever played dead when leaving the vets. Could you imagine everyone’s faces in the waiting room if they saw this 😂
That would be the best!😄
🤣
@@marciloni12 you nailed it!!
🤣😂😜🤗
Just going in for a check up. Aaaahaha
Bailey the beagle is so cute when playing dead it's so funny when he comes back to life looking for a treat lol
Dave's prolonged and rolling laugh to Bailey is one of the best things ever.
Dave Letterman is a national treasure, and his dog voice is EVERYTHING!
Bailey playing dead, quickly looking for treat and playing dead again!!! O my god 🤣🤣🤣 m laughing my eyes out
HAHAHA 😂😂😂, I ❤❤❤❤❤❤ YOUR COMMENT.
Paws down, Bailey was the show stopper! All of them had me lmao.😂😀👍
I love when she comes back to life for treats 😂
I love Bailey best playing dead dog ever, thanks for sharing Bailey with us.👏👏🙏❤️🥰😘💐
This is the cutest thing I've ever seen. Bailey is adorable and smart. I don't think any other dog can do this trick and make it work. Bailey ROCKS!!
Bailey was sweet and amazing, the counting dog was brilliant, the demon dog was clever. I love them all and their uniqueness.
The "ahhh, ahhh play dead" at 9:05 had me spitting out my drink. LMAO.
Funniest thing I've seen today
When he said Bailey was going to play dead I didn't have that in mind I just laughed so loud my dog is looking at me to see if I'm Ok.
Dave never minded giving the celebrities a difficult time but he was truly magnanimous towards the "regular folk" and their pets.
Dave grew up in a middle class home, a middle class kid eating bologna sandwiches
Bailey cracks me up every time I come across this video. I actually saw this when it was first aired on TV and I damn near peed myself.
Bailey CRACKED me up!!!! I can't stop laughing..!!!!!!🤣😂🤣😂🤣
You and me both. It was good. But it was funny. Lol
I kept playing it back for at least 8 times.
I think Babe is trained to start barking when she holds up a paper and stops when she sees her owner move to get the treat.
That’s what I thought too.
Yup that’s true
That Karen woman looked adorable
Yes, that's known as the "Clever Hans" effect. Basically animals will respond to subtle cues from their owners, but that does not prove they know numbers or counting in the way we do.
Baileys look to see if the treat is ready makes me so happy! Alive - Dead - in between - alive again!
Lol "in between" 😂😂😂 ye
Bailey was funny, but the counting dog was truly amazing. Shows how intelligent dogs are.
The dog isn't recognizing the number, she's looking for a queue to stop barking from the owner.
@@Texas240
Like a treat.
Oh, honey. The dog barks until the treat comes out. Every time. Gorgeous dog, though.
@@Texas240 exactly... may be her fingers
@@tigressnsnow she lost no time with that treat after he barked as long as she wanted him to. At least she's able to count to ten (and fool a lot of people with such an easy trick)
Wow, Babe the counting dog was truly amazing and by far the best.
The dog barks until she stops showing it the card (or some other cue) and then stops. Still cute though.
I heard that dog died.
A neighbor slipped in a note with 3,000,000,000,000 written on it.
5:37 to 5:38, she was still holding the card.
@@Amtcboy 😂😂😂😂
@@comfortablydumb1681 Obviously. We see how it stops, and then starts again. There was no cue, so...
But dogs actually can do more than that. But only if there is proper training.

really really impressive.
I love that Bailey kept trying to play dead every time Dave said the word 😂😂
Stupid pet tricks…has to be one of the best bits on any late night talk show.
You have to wonder how they are chosen for this. Are there auditions? How does one conduct "stupid pet trick" auditions?
I’m sure people sent videos of their dogs tricks and the best were chosen to come to NY
Bailey is so smart. This trick is just a venue for treats. She likely feels silly, but a treat is a treat! too cute! ❤❤
Will "Play Dead" for treats.
It works for Bailey.
This video brings back memories of the first time I saw this! I laughed so hard and so long over Bailey (and Dave's reaction!) Bailey was the dog that inspired me to teach my own dog to play dead!
How do you actually get the dog to do it tho? Do you have to demonstrate first?
@@bexactlyyy Good question.....
The Shiba Inu just cracked me up!!😂😂😂
I never get tired of watching Bailey!!!
Our beloved pet friends, never disappointing...♥️
I miss Dave Letterman on late night.
Bailey is one of my favorite Stupid Pet Tricks guests. 😊
Now, all the latenight comics have become political flacks and are no longer funny.
I hated Letterman.
@@AmericaLives-r2m 🤕Were you picked on as a child?
@@indiglo1971 were you?
Yes I’m from the U.K. and I always watched him.
I found this clip last week and any time I'm feeling down I play it and laugh my head off!!
I still remember Bailey playing dead all these years ago. One of the best of Stupis Pet Tricks!
Bailey had me dying with laughter. Lol
Dogs are so amazingly pure
Bailey playing dead is certainly somewhere in the top five of all the stupid pet tricks.
Sparky turned into "CUJO."😮Bailey's trick was HYSTERICAL!
Our OWN dog, Niles, learned how to play us. His "Treat Time" was 9:30 at night, and, he would walk over to each of us, in separate rooms, and act like he didn't get his treat. We FINALLY caught on, after a while.
Put him down for being a liar.
@@sauerkrautvonbraun4590 what? That's not funny...

@@tanyawieczorek6603 Cat People!
@@QUICKBOOKS1 Noooo! Sauerkraut does NOT represent us cat people!
Bailey the beagle is the best pet trick. He's a classic act.
You could tell Dave really got a kick out of Bailey playing dead. He tried to talk then kept laughing.
even tried to shake the dog's hand
I would love for David letterman to come back to late night . I miss him ❤️
Stupid pet tricks was ICONIC.
This is back when late-night tv was funny, with actual talent.
I saw this years ago and laughed sooo then and did same thing now. So funny
Omg the play dead was the funniest thing! I scared my dogs with my screaming laughter!!
All these lovely doggies are long gone. How bittersweet this is. ❤
Dave! One of the best bits of all time.
Back when late night was worth staying up for!
I have cracked up over Bailey ever since I first I first saw her. I laugh a ridiculous amount every single time.
When Sparky looks up at Letterman. 😂😂😂 Bailey is adorable!!! 🥰🥰🥰
This is the funniest thing I've seen in ages 🤣🤣🤣
Daves interaction with the pets is amazing. Guy is truly missed late night.
The last of the great ones no doubt.
@@joefran619 no doubt
He had a Black Lab named Bob. One of his companies was named after Bob and featured a photo of Bob on the logo
I only miss that fast liquid blue polished stage
@@joefran619 ×
That was hysterical. The play dead one caught me off guard because of the new twist these two put on it.
That counting dog is genius!
Bailey is a miracle 😅 one minute dead and next back to life 😂😂
I laughed my ass off. I love Bailey play dead😅. 😂 😂crack me up every time, hilarious.
I laughed out so loud for Bailey... What a crazy trick👻
Best doggie version of play dead ever.
the last dog ,is hilarious . I can't stop laughing . HAHAHA !
its so cute too of course
That dog who played dead was amazing! LoL.
David letterman is my all time favorite late night host.
I used to watch him almost every night.
Very entertaining. Animals are cute in General. Can do the cutest things. God Bless you all.
after last dog's trick, the owner isn't paying attention to Dave's handshake proposal.
So Dave - normally- does a handshake with the dog's leg at 9:20
The geniusness of David Letterman in 3 seconds
Hahaha thanks for noticing that, that’s hilarious
😂saw that
I am thinking the dog owner may not have been able to see Dave's hand. 🤔
He did shake his hand at 9:31.
This video is pure TV excellence!!! ❤❤❤
The laughs stop when Bailey goes to "the up-per rooooom".
Always so much fun - really miss these Dave!
I always loved “Stupid Pet Tricks” on Letterman!😂
Aw, that's nothing! my boy Baldurdash is so smart, when the sign says _WET FLOOR_ he does!
Anybody who doesn't think dogs can count, take three treats out of the jar and just give him two.
Dave's laugh as Bailey drops for the 2nd & 3rd time make the moment all the more hilarious.
I love how the first guy said he and his dog are "both from San Francisco".
I like that " she will bark forever " Whahahahaaha
" I LOVE the " WE gotta get our money's worth... " 😁😁😊👏🏻👏🏻
That's so funny, Bailey!!!!
Dave left hanging, played it cool with the dogs foot.
Paw.
lmfao

I would've left' em hanging too
Bailey is looking around at the start like a beagle does...."I know I can smell a bacon sandwich somewhere...." 😂
I must have watched this 100 times over and can't stop laughing!!
Omygod she was great had to. Watch over and over to get a good laugh. 👏👏👏😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😍🤣
My favorite late night show! God bless David and his family
Bailey did for me. Bailey came READY! Bailey was practicing as dad talked. The warm up was taking me OUT. 😂😂😂
It’s been so long, I forgot that there was late night TV that was actually FUNNY 😂
Devil Dog and Bailey.. Bravo
This is why I love watching Letterman and Jack Hannah videos. Animals crack me up!
As a dog trainer, I think I figured out the barking trick. The dog continues to bark for as long as she holds the card. When she makes a little signal that she's going to put the card down, the dog stops barking.
I know.
Just how stupid do they think we are? Oh wait ... this is Letterman's audience.

Bailey the Beagle playing dead is hilariously funny! I never tire of seeing him play dead! I crack up every time laughing out loud so hard😂😂😂
“Play dead” LMAO NICE ONE
Got to admit little Bailey’s the Man! That was hysterical😅😂🎉❤😂😂😅
Bailey: comes out of play dead to check if treat is coming.
When the guy said "would you like to pet him again" and the dog looked straight at Dave 🤣🤣
He has a way of taking some kitschy and making it artful.
Love them all💜💜💜 they all did their best!! 🎉🎉 Good boys and good girls 💜💜
I agree. They’re all fantastic.
The counting dog!! OMG how sweet! Does anyone know how she taught him that??
The owner give a silent signal when the dog is supposed to stop counting. Maybe a head or a hand signal that the dog watches for.
She taught her with popcorn!
The dogs that barks the number on cards was very impressive but the dog that plays dead was way to funny. Both dogs got my vote.
I'm pretty sure the counting dog just keeps barking until its master takes away the card. I mean the counting wouldn't be as impressive as the dog actually reading the numbers.
@@Ken_Brooks yep 🙂 pretty sure there's a subtle sign to stop. certainly not impossible though, that it could learn bark the number, it's just symbols. thinking of it, that could be cool project to teach my dog! (not barking, but maybe press a button such many times or something)
All three dogs 🐶, get my vote. I thought all three dogs 🐶🐶, were hilarious 🤣🤣🤣.
The dogs were cool😊
All three dogs were Amazing👍🤩
Bailey...cuteness overloaded 🤣🤣🤣
I would love to have them all. They are truly the loveliest animals.
Babe was a very good dog.
