According to my Bulldog it's always bed time lol.
xd same
Bulldogs are superior
I hear that!
Danejah has
Stop feeding your bulldog cupcakes lol.
Human : What time is it?
Dog : *sniffs* smells like 4 pm
Mario Lumbanraja lmao
Mario Lumbanraja underrated comment
A 4:20pm to be more precise!
LOL thank you for the laugh!
Dog.. Half past an ass-crack, till food....
Plot twist: Dog already knows what the humans are up to and is just playing along.
I've thought about that a lot. what if animals do what they do because they think that's what we want them to do. or even tricking us for treats
They're not cats
Yes animals play and experiment with us but we can't understand it and they don't understand that we don't understand that they understand it.
I wonder if the light from outside activates the dog into knowing the person will be there soon.
@@cap10zomb No, because sunset times change throughout the year. During the middle of the winter at this time it would be pitch black, in the middle of summer it'd be very sunny.
5am every morning my dog wakes me up by staring into my soul.
mine by breathing in my face, jumping on the bed, or sticking his nose between my toes xD
lol
what does it smell like?
-death. your breath smells like death hooman.
GOOD BOOOYYYYYYY
My dog just stands next to me, projecting her dog energy into me until I wake up
Thought it was just mine
'It seems Jazz somehow knows that Johnny is coming home' - Well there's a clock right there on the wall.
RIGHT.. And they are all amazed like it is magic... You think he is not copping a peek at the clock now and then?
I really laughed quite hard at this
😂
Its still pretty amazing thing to think that a dog would be able to relate the positions of the hands on a clock with the arrival of their owner.
Just Thanks for the laughs
poor dog feels so dejected after you played that trick on him.
Yes dog understood the trick
It's the same dejected look you have when you look at your balance after getting money from the ATM.
he just confused
I think Johnny took it harder, His regular greeting at the door where is it?!
I mean look at the way he stood at the door, scratched his head and uttered "Are you coming or what?".
A dog that's being left alone for that many hours daily would be downright depressed, selfish b*stards.
back in high school, the bus dropped me off at around the same time (4:45) each day. after school ended, several buses for elementary and middle schools stopped by my house before mine did (b/c they are let out earlier). my dogs learned to wait for my specific bus at its exact time. they would never bother to rise from their bed unless they had “counted” 2 buses, because they knew mine was next. sometimes id have to stay in school for meetings etc and my mom told me if the 3rd bus passed and i didnt get home, they would cry. i still think its so cute
That is extremely sweet! What great doggies :)
Our dog growing up did the same thing! Good memories.
omg so pure
Princess Pumpkin We don’t deserve dogs. 😭
Naught Guile if it’s after 6pm and I haven’t fed my dog yet she will start to rattle the door. It’s never before 6
He was depressed because he thought his owner turned into a ghost.
Maybe he was actually thinking that the dude was dead
I was going to day something very similar.
Hello Dr.
lol
We thought that if we ate one more it wouldent hurt lmfao
"Now let's not pretend that this is scientific!" is one of the most beautifuli things I've heard.
With everyone jumping to conclusions based on flawed studies and research or even anecdotes I wish I heard that sentence more often.
Well said! SO sick of trials I read which make false assumptions & e.g. psychiatrists & docs getting causes & effects the wrong way round too often.
Nah, its the wild west without science! Just filter educational sources that are peer reviewed, google scholar makes it easy
Well---but the experiment was scientific, just not sufficiently controlled and repeated to draw any scientific conclusions. But it was scientifically interesting.
they did him a h*ckin' bamboozle :(
Hooman insolent.
King Bibi heckin isn’t a swear word 😂
@JediNxf7 bacc*
milixe1 tru
Why did you bleep "heckin"? That's not a cuss word. You already bleeped it by saying heckin. What are you, like 8?
Humans think of time as purely numerical when if you think about it, all it is is the moon orbiting the earth and the earth orbiting the sun. There could be plenty of other ways to tell the time, it's just that numbers make more sense to the human mind.
I know this was written 3 years ago but I think that humans are the ones who made time. I don't think time actually exists outside earth. I mean I think that our universe is infinite. There was no start and there will be no end
Audrius Šaučiūnas we invented time youre right. everything is actually happening at once us humans just made up time to keep track of things
Audrius Šaučiūnas everything has a start
no numbers make sense because that's HOW we've been taught at younger age. historically stars, moon and the sun was used to capture a moment IN time. numbers were irrelevant then. I agree with you 100%
Unfortunately all of you guys are wrong. Time isn't linear or circular, it's a square. The whole universe is a cube and we "live" inside it, that's how I know the earth is flat.
I don;t know how my dogs know, but they somehow have figured out their feeding time that is the same every day down to within 1 or 2 minutes & if I am 1 minute late they will come get my attention & let me know they are starving to within an inch of their lives lol
My cat's do this in the morning they start prancing on us to get up and fill their bowls 1/2 hour to 15 minutes before the alarm goes off.
they did it again today within 1 minute of their feeding time... do they know the clock hands move? What is going on?
My dog runs to his bed at 4:59 pm every day for dinner, and it's not because he's hungry, because he's always hungry. He knows exactly what time it is.
@@Homer62001 i take a dump everyday at the same time and i never look at the time. Can my ass tell the time??
Feed the 30 minutes earlier than see if they still come at the same time.
Many years ago, my parents had a Border Collie, Duke. Duke could tell time. While my father didn't always feed Duke at exactly the same time every day, at exactly 5:00 PM every day, Duke would start barking for someone to feed him. You could set your watches and clocks by Duke. He would not start barking at 4:59, and he would not wait till 5:01. At exactly 5:00 every afternoon, Duke would start barking for his food. And he was an outside dog. He was outside with Gypsy and Bandit. We never noticed anything outside making noises at five o'clock. We don't know why he started barking at exactly 5:00 every afternoon; but he did. You could set your clock by him.
My border collie is also like a clock about her food times.
Thats amazing !!!!
@@kmbrlyj7051 I live in Canada. I have heard many a border collie owner rant about what the time change does to their border collie.
Our Malinois is exactly the same as this.I thought for a while it was to do with the position of the sun, but he always knows when it's 4pm and time for 'tea and biccies', whether or not the sky is overcast or whatever the season is. We talk about his inbuilt Rolex!
Poor baby looked so sad that his owner has seemingly disappeared right out of his clothing. 2:28
USMCVET yeah I thought the same . 😂🤣
They played that dog lol
One of my dogs nudges my hand at exactly 5:27 every morning, 3 minutes before my alarm goes off.
Lol. You’re failing to see the very simple explanation for your dog’s behavior. There’s clearly a ghost in your house who knows how to tell time, and he alerts the dog.
I thought I was the only one. My dog, Nugget, has been waking me before my first alarm for a long while now. I thought he just went so long without attention and affection that he had to wake me to pet him or for me to let him out.
Brandon F
I taught my German Shepherd to whisper so she wouldn't wake my wife up when she needed to go outside (I was usually awake).
One day I fell asleep too & when my wife woke she let out a startled yelp, I asked what, she pointed & I let out my own startled yelp!
She (dog) was so used to whispering and not waking my wife up that instead she put just her head on the bed, right in front of my wife's face & just stared at her so the second my wife woke up she'd be noticed LOL
One of my favorite memories of that pup!
(She couldn't access my side of the bed)
My cat does this at 6:30 every morning but my alarm clock is set to 7:30. I have not found out yet how to reset the cat to Daylight Saving Time.
why did my dumbass click the timestamp
Why do dogs always race to the door when the doorbell rings? It's hardly ever for them.
they just want to make new friends
Do you have the heart to tell your dog that the guests didn't come to see them?
My cat does the same.
eyeluv2dance that’s not catlike. 😂
my dog barks at the doorbell thing on the wall that makes the noise
I work in the canine behavior industry and this is something that I've always wondered about. One of the most prominent and universal ideas I've heard from trainer is that dogs can actually smell the change in air/atmosphere at different times of day. For example, they can smell and feel changes in temperature as the sun rises or sets.
who else wakes up exactly 1 minute before the alarm clock goes off just to turn it off and go back to sleep?
Yeah, I don't know why it has to be anymore complicated that this.
lmao me
I hate that
Living at home with my parents I woke up for work at the exact time, 7:30. This year I went to Uni, don't really have a sleep schedule. I go home for the weekend and always wake up at 7:30, it's weird.
I can never have an alarm out, it stresses me out 1000%
That front door could use a little WD-40. 🚪
Wd-40 is mostly for temporary fixes such as removing a screw. I'd recommend graphite powder or some other smearing
Wd-40 won two world wars. And kept the British Empire running smoothly.
Lol Ikr i was thinking the same thing!
NubeBuster I use white lithium grease on car doors. Should work on hinges too in a house.
@C C LOL are you serious? I mean, did you type that seriously? God almighty, princess, here's a tissue, dry your eyes before the coronavirus claims you for having no sense of humour.
when I moved to another country and couldn't take my dog with me, everytime I called my family, they tell me my dog came close to the person in the phone and listen to the whole conversation, as if he knew it was me :( this is sad when we have to leave and give up on our pets.
Jacob Luchador only u my friend
Mike West wtf
kek!
Mike West wow.. that’s messed up
Same here :( .... and she would go looking for me all over the house after...
They should have done it more than once to establish a more conclusive reading..
Shampoo Doesnt taste as good as it smells I said the exact same thing and change variables at least once
Do you have a dog? If you do then you see it every single day. Along with millions of other dog owners. If you have a cat... never mind lmao
I'd change the dog and the person just to make sure.
Shampoo Doesnt taste as good as it smells
Yeahhhh ... but then the video would be too long ...
And in multiple environments with multiple factors
I know my dog knows my routine. But I never thought about the smell I idea.
whatabout if you would open windows and let in fresh air? would that change anything?
@@Mboy556 Good question! A lot of dog owners keep the windows open in their homes, and their dog appears to know what time it is.
Sharon 92075
Ooh then that test witch they did shouldn’t rly make any sense 😂
Maybe the dog has secretly put a GPS sender onto his owner. That way he can track him on DOGNET.
Didn't watch till the end huh
@@MIKENIKEanimation tbh i totally read that wrong.
Sound like some dog porn web shit
of course how could i not think of that!
Sixth Echelon therefore r/woooosh
My dog always used to come to the bus stop to take me back home whenever I would reach the bus stop after school.. He always stood there on time. Dogs do really know time.
I don't know why everyone seems so surprised! Give dogs some credit! We can't be the only egg heads on the entire planet!
svenm Sandity lmao, you're so smart right?
they got nothing better to air lol
true, but we humans did invent the construct of time. Thus it would be interesting and out of the ordinary for other animals to know what 'time'is
Ocker De Bokx well animals learned how to tell Time by themselves no human taught them that, and humans only created the clock and those other types of time objects
That's why we get along so well...... Dumbass solidarity ✊
Animals can tell time. Period. Every day, my horses make their ways through the pasture. At a certain time every day, they are at a certain spot. After breakfast, they make their ways to the back of the pasture and work their ways back to the barn by the end of the day. At 10:30 almost every morning, they are grazing by the arena. They usually drink at the same times, too. I set my clock every morning to get up but my pet pig religiously wakes up at 4:45 am and expects breakfast. His daily routines are so predictable. I can set my watch by his actions, to the minute. The pig and the dog are able to hold their potty breaks the entire day while I'm at work. I put puppy pads down for both, but they never use them. My birds squawk at the same times three times per day. Like clockwork. Also, I have lots of wildlife here on the farm that show up at the same times everyday. Animals can tell time.
I don't know if they sense a pattern or sense "ok it's time to move on" but practically I consider this a sense of time.
Umm can I be your assistant?
Yeah, from the changes in weather and other natural phenomena. Observe them on an eclipse day and they will behave totally differently. Their tools of sensing time is different from our's (clocks).
the video is called 'can dogs tell the time'
my dog has no tock just ticks
Doesn't this prove more that dogs recognize routine rather than time?
Jamie Reilley i dont think so only because the woman got home at the same time as she normally would so she didnt break her routine
Exactly - who's to say the smell hasn't faded by midday? The t-shirt trick may have thrown the dog in some other way, like making him believe the guy was already home. Why can't dogs, like us, have a general sense of duration? Their memories are not THAT short. Btw, the presenter's annoying voice reminds me why I don't have a tv any more!
@@xoxb2 Annoying voice 😂😂😭
xoxb2 you’re correct. It’s hard to come to a conclusion without throwing out other factors that could affect the experiment.
xoxb2 yes it could be a number of things. But smells don’t disappear just like that, they fade away probably much more like an exponential, ie no matter how much time has passed some smell is always left and but is still decreasing in proportion to how much smell is left and this is theoretically detectable.
Dogs are very punctual and they have pattern. Lovely lovely creatures🥰🥰🥰
yeah just like scooby do.
Yes🐶
You're called Dr Scooby?
Joe Curran I love Scooby doo so it is like my UA-cam name
Ppl call me Dr.Varsha
My dog starts to get anxiety if we don't stick to the routine she has become used too. She get's a look in her eyes as if asking what she could have possibly done wrong.
Poor dog just wants to greet his human after a long day away from him... science has gone too far
I hope your joking right
LOL this comment. you win.
That is the cutest dog ever omg 😊😄😅
Vizsla - gorgeous dogs.
Do I want to know how you acquired "half a dog"?
That's what everyone says
They have a good sense of smell, as expected of hunting dogs
My wife found my dirty socks on the couch. Told her I'm experimenting and shown her this video......Then I realized we don't even have a dog.....
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Or a wife
Damn.thats sad
Hahaha xD you should be a comedian
😂😂😂
Jazz is good peoples
Dogs can’t use clocks, so they’ve developed a sense of time without. Humans would be no different if sun dials and clocks never came into existence.
So true :D
day and night is pretty much the time for animals
I have never worn a watch and I am extremely good at guessing the time. I am rarely more than 5-10 minutes out and a lot of the time I guess it correctly to the minute. I do this by judging time intervals (e.g. it feels like about 95 minutes after I got up) not by knowing what time it is. I don't see any reason at all why dogs can't do the same.
Some people can wake up at a particular time regardless of whatever time they slept.
yeah, it's called looking at the sky.
For some reason , that house feels so warm ❤
I would have liked to see them test this theory more than once.
Yah on more dogs. Would have also liked to see if the dog went back to the normal behavior the next day when they didn't refresh his owner's scent in the room.
Not once have I ever assumed that only the human mind can grasp the concept of time.
What a gorgeous Vizsla!
We were owned by a Vizsla for 14 years. She liked to go to bed (yes, she slept on the bed with us) at 9:30 pm. My husband was a night owl, so I usually went to bed first. , And every night at around 9:30 Beka would come to me and bark, whine, nudge and pester until I gave up and went to bed. After the first month of this I always checked the clock when she accosted me, and it was always within 10 minutes on either side of 9:30. She would be confused when we changed the clocks in the spring and fall, but she always got back on track within a day or so.
Likewise, the horses at a nearby barn always gathered at the gates of their pastures at 4:30 pm, which is when they were brought in and given dinner. Like Beka, they were confused by the change in fall and spring, but they, too, adjusted within a few days.
Food is a different story... If u will eat for a 2-3 month at 9:00 every morning,after 2-3 month ur stomach will make u feel hungry in about that time every day until u will change the time you used to have breakfast. Stomack has a clock too,for real.But This dog can have a food 24/7...
Claudia Wheatley man i hope she was a good owner.
mine always slept in bed with me unfortunately he passed away recently he was 9
Nothing in Particular where do you live? What time does school start for you! That seems so early to me. I go to school in the UK. My registration starts at 8:40, lessons at 8:50. There is break at 10:50 to 11:05/10. Lunch is 12:30 to 1:30 and we leave at 3:45.
I love the " we were owned". That is so true! ahahahah
BBC needs more pups in their lives. Lots of dogs do this.
My grandad used to come round every Wednesday evening at around 7pm. Our dog loved him and the amazing thing was she would stand waiting by the front door just before 6 every Wednesday. Suggesting she not only had an idea of the time but also the day of the week! I never understood how she could do that. It seems that would be too long to be basing it on his scent 🤔
Our dogs can tell if we're close to home. They do this bark-kind-of-greeting telling the other that we have arrived and they have different barks for specific individuals. Animals are amazing!
You knew very well that I HAD to click on this video when I saw the thumbnail. You sir, are using your powers for evil.
I was just clicking on the video bc of the cute Dog in the Thumbnail :)
Same
Same
It’s a Viszla. My family has had them the last 20 years. Awesome dogs
It’s a Hungarian Vizsla. I have one and they are like the best dogs ever along with labs
Hah clickbait (not that I hate it)
My dog used to wait for me at certain times everyday at bus stop..each time varied everyday he was always there.. he also knows every saturday is his treat day hes always jumping for joy on a Saturday morning... dogs most definitely know what day and time it is
Nothing more loving then a dog waking you up in the morning--while in your face. Cats... they want to be fed, then they think "'k, I'm outta here, yo!"
When I was a Dalmatian, I woke up my human at the same time every day. The radio came on exactly 5 seconds after I woke him. That is, until daylight savings time happened, and all my efforts were messed up for months.
Ur a human
(:LUIS(: he's actually a undercover spacecanoe called Raymond Luxury-yacht, but he writes his name "throat-wobbler mangrove"
Of course that dog can tell time, it's a WATCH dog
av8rr deserves more upvotes
*Plot Twist:*
_The day of the experiment was daylight savings time and the clocks moved back 1 hr._
I should go to sleep early
3am:
Whenever the Simpsons theme tune played at 6pm my dog would wait at the door for my dad. Dogs are awesome
It kinda reminded me how flowers are able to tell time, they open when the sun is up and close when it’s down. It’s another way to tell time.
JOHNNY SAID “hey son” TO THE DOG OMGGGGG 😭
Dog:
*”We’ve been tricked, We’ve been backstabbed, We’ve been quite possibly bamboozled”*
I certainly can't. It's I-Should-Go-The-Fuck-To-Sleep O'clock and I'm still watching pupper videos.
my dogs know 3pm exactly for their supper, but they follow the sun I literally move carpets around to accommodate their sunbathing
A buddy once asked me how his dog recognized turning clocks forward or back.
My answer was 'conditioning'.. We live most of our lives by routine. The dogs adapt within a day or two.
i love this dog so much, I JUST LOVE DOGS 😭❤️
first thing I do when I wake up is to give my dog her pills (for heart disease) with a treat. If I oversleep, she comes to my room and wakes me up.
0:08 "They leave the house at the same time"
*man walking out the door as the lady enters the kitchen in a robe*
They leave the house individually at the same time everyday. That's what they meant.
Dog is the best real friend with unconditional love.
This makes a lot of sense, it would help a dog to gauge how recently a competitor had been through their territory and left a scent marking. So they know if they have a fight on their -hands- paws.
My old dog was even stranger. My Dad works away a lot and returns different days and different times, but the dog always knew he was coming back 30 minutes before he arrived. Sometimes we didn’t even know he was coming back because he would surprise us, but the dog gave it away 😂
That's something I witnessed when I was a kid. Mom was in sales and had appointments in the pm after 5 o'clock. Not every day and not at the same time every day. Our *cat* would go to the front door and groom itself for a few minutes as if it was waiting for her and then, sure enough, we'd hear Mom unlocking the door and walking in. Cats have excellent hearing and dad and I would often surmise the cat could "hear" her car coming down the street in the evening, but we never actually figured out *how* he knew. :)
Dogs are amazing
I can't live without my dog ♥️
Dust Shot lies
Nunekhiia dagfens ahrst entrachtens fantasteiche
Dog suck😴
No they suck
In the morning my dog opens my door ;-;
And jumps on me
He’s 120 lbs
Explanation why: Since animals are braindead, we as humans can figure some things out by ourselves, with logical thinking and etc. Animals learn by habbits, since the routine in the house is constantly the same, the dog realizes , so the woman came, the man will come too. Sometimes, even little details can change the entire way they think. And change their habbits, like if the man cane later for maybe one day, the dog will get confused and entirely change the way he acts ( his habbit of standing on the couch) and do something else the next day/s or whenever. This happens constantly troughout the dogs life.
When I was a kid my cat would be waiting for me at the bus stop every day. I don’t know how early she got there but without fail she would walk me home every day.
Way to go humans. Thousands of years living side by side with us, and it took a smelly British couple to figure out how we tell time.
Ur a human
(:LUIS(: Thats kinda racist.
I don't think it's the only way they can tell time thought.
Smell a lot better than a yank covered in bacon grease from Burger king.
To make this a fair test they need to keep spreading the smell of the owner throughout the house 'resetting the smell' and see if the dog adapts after some time and once again knows when the owner's about to return.
Until then I'm not entirely convinced. I think if a cow knows when it's about to rain, a bird knows which way south is ...then it's not even that hard to imagine that a dog can sense what time it is!
Every living thing knows when it’s time for lunch.
There at work, a couple of dogs each day at 5pm, and with a punctual timing they ask (or bark) desperately to be released so they can ran over the store. From Monday thru Friday, as soon as we close the front desk, even if there is sound or people, they go nuts cause they know they are gonna be free to go around. I love them. So much energy and happiness. Despite of all, they run to you to smack your face with their tongues. Its so beautiful.
I'm pretty sure they know so much about everything, just because we cant mind what they are thinkin, it doesnt mean they are not thinkin something.
It's the scent, their sense of smell is strong. My parents have had dogs together and they first one would always know when I'm coming down the road, so does the one they have now, he always come running up by the door, waiting for me or he climbs up on the sofa and waits by the windows. The second I'm close to the house, he will begin barking like crazy.
I doubt the human mind can be the only thing to sense as time progresses. Animals get bored too. They evolved right there with us, so I can only imagine they understand it to some effect, just not as deeply as our understanding of how we define time.
Well, that was the question. The dog did not appear to really know anything about time. It seemed to only know when the scent of their owner had faded away. Do we as humans really know anything about time? We only know about time relevant to a clock or calendar.
According to my Beagle it’s always dinner time.
Same for Cockers, she literally looks at me as ''Im hungry'' 90% of times and ''Im starving, God damn it!!'' when she is really hungry :DD
This same thing happens with our cat. Like a routine. When my dad comes home from work every night at the same time our cat is always waiting in the same spot in the kitchen every time.
I take my dog for a walk every evening and now when it's getting to be that time he bugs and whines at me.
How would a fading scent explain this?
I love how they say, “Now, let’s not pretend this is scientific.” If this were on American TV they would’ve proclaimed this as absolute and undeniable proof of the dog scent-clock hypothesis.
What did we do to deserve dogs? ❤️
Greg Caesar we fed them and then domesticated them for protection...we saved each other back in the day. I would’ve loved to see that first happened..Dogs rule
Chuck Schick
It was a RHETORICAL QUESTION, CHUCK.
Greg Caesar I know bud...hahahahahahaha relax
Yeah to see that first happening would be a treat.
We didn’t do anything. We MADE them this way. Dogs are humanity’s greatest invention
Consistant, repeat behaviour. Dogs are quick to recognise these behaviour patterns. Good poker players.
do you know why? its because dogs aint dumb
Interesting theory that. Narrows just about everything down
This video demonstrates the intelligence of an animal and It's amazing how animals use their abilities. That makes them unique.
Yep dogs have a sense of time, I used to take my dog for a walk at 6.30pm, he would sit in front of the tv near the time trying to get our attention to take him for a walk. Man he was one smart dog, miss him 😪
Dogs have a sense of time ...
My pet Popo is very attached with my husband, and everytime he leaves out of town, he tells her exactly when he is returning, and on that day ....She waits for him ...As if she know ....Its very intriguing....
Or if I tell her , he is coming at this time ....She knows exactly and she is at the window looking outside ...
I don't have a theory for it ...But I for sure know ...They have an uncanny sense of time ....
Can dogs sense stuff that humans can't?
When I was a little girl, my three cousins whose father had just died in his sleep stayed with us for a couple of days. One of them was sleeping with me in my room on a bunk bed situated against the windows from which you can look out and see whoever's outside door. On the first night, I was awakened by a continuous, muffled-sounding knocks on the door at the same, our dog was barking relentlesstly at the door. I got up and peeped through the window.....and there was no one there 😱 I ran back to bed and hid under my blanket. I was too terrified to even wake my cousin.
The dog kept barking and the knocking stopped...
The next day, I told everyone what had happened and they thought I was just trying to scare them...
Whoa! I wasn't expecting a ghost story here I would've shit my pants 😱 My family believe in ghosts the supernatural you know. Not me! Why didn't your cousin or the others wake up from all the noises? Maybe you were just dreaming..?
Never had ghost experience here with my dog but I've manifested with/through my dog telepathically. Sounds crazy but true!
@@user-xl1un3rk4k I wasn't dreaming 100% conscious, and also wondered why I was the only one who was awakened by the noise..
Humans: this dog's instict is fascinating
Dog: *actually just looks at the clock*
When I was young, me and my sisters were watching tv with the neighbor because my 3rd sister passed and her wake is held at home, our dog came with us in the neighbor's house. Dog is not allowed because they have dog also, so we asked her to go home and come back at 8pm. That time the series we are watching will finished. Our neighbor heared the dog barking, when she looked at the clock it was 8pm. She was amazed.
My mum's dog always knows time for food. We are a family out of routine. He knows 4 o clock is food time and will always go to the person that feeds him regularly. If the person is not around, he will wait till they're home then follow them around until he gets his food then he goes back to ignoring us.
Dog: I can smells time
Human: wat?
My dog, who’s 15, seems to know whenever it’s 5pm (dinner time) every single day no matter what we are all doing even if she’s out at the park at 5pm, she’ll still be like “I know it’s dinner time”
When I get this video recommend to me at 4am
I don’t need sleep, I need answers!
They indirectly know time. Sun rising and setting, common sounds of humans, alarm clocks, and outside noise. Additionally, they see humans do daily routine things and can depict time based on all of this
answer: YES! Work from home, and at about 4-5 PM, my dog - very quiet - but he starts getting restless, paces - sits at a door - staring at me (as I always FEEL him in the corner of my eye), panting - as I am trying to keep focus - and like clockwork - he has me trained on when we go out - cuz I want that guilt off my mind - and walk him. Daily Event!
you could've just made her to come back home at 3 pm instead of 4 pm and if the dog still follows the procedure of checking on the window in 40 mins after she camed home (meaning 3:40), then obviously the dog cant tell the time and its just a reflex it learned.
But in your scenario it still tracks 40 minutes..
@@justanotherone9685 wrong, because it's just a learned reflex. it cant be precisely 40 mins, not even humans can do that (without counting). Read more about learned (aka CONDITIONED) reflexes on dogs and you will understand better. Pavlov did lots of studies about conditioned reflexes on dogs
@@user-yp6kk9lx7k you're 100% right.
@@user-yp6kk9lx7k Nice theory. Since it's not proven true, you can't really assert it as right though. Believe it or not, I've heard of Pavlov once or twice and seen his studies. The video was about the phenomenon of dogs possibly being able to have some idea of time. I don't really think it's rational or scientific to say that just because a human can't do something, another species of animal can't as well. Regardless of it being conditioned to check, it obviously has some awareness of the passage of time, as it's always at least around 40 minutes and not usually way off, from what was seen in the video
Farmers know the time by looking at the sun. Pretty accurate too !
I think its not the sense of smell. They just feel it and the brain tell it to them "its time".
If you're familiar to the story of the loyal Japanese Dog "Hachi"..
The dog spend his whole life waiting to his owner at the shibuya station for over 11 years. No one will come, but he keeps doing it in the exact time. 6pm everyday until hachi died.
I remember back when I had to pick my brother up from middle school, there was a little dog that would always run straight to the door the kids came out of, just before the bell rang. She was actually my clock back then, because I knew when she stopped playing, and begging people for pets to head for the door, that meant it was time for my brother to get out. She was always the first one there too, and it always warmed my heart to see her tiny human run straight for her every day, to give her pets and kisses. 💕
I love you BBC!

Should be done on many dogs and multiple time to test this theory
That was his routine.
And u guys effed it.
He must avenge himself
The best thing to come out of the BBC
They also make connexion between events and noises from outside, like a bus or a neighbour or kids going home after school. Things we don't hear, but they do.
