Pupper pawrent realizes his doggo is faking a cold to get personally wrapped in a blanket burrito, prompting owners to share their pets' silly secrets to getting more attention

Dogs are great communicators if you know how to listen to what they're saying. They can't communicate with words, but they can with actions. The best part of it is that it looks a lot like acting, like they're faking it for attention. Perhaps they are actually faking it for attention, but sometimes, it's the only way they know how to speak to us!

One dad wrapped his shivering pup in a warm blanket one night, and ever since then, his doggo has adopted the most adorable habit. Now, no matter if it's cold or not, the dog will come next to him and give a little "shiver", then look at him, waiting. This is his sign that he wants his dad to wrap him in a blanket burrito, even if it looks like he's faking being cold to get his papa to feel bad for him, and thusly, wrap him in a blanket. Just when you thought doggos couldn't get more adorable, they go and do things like this.

This howlarious and cute canine story prompted other pet pawrents to share their furry friends' silly secrets to getting more attention, and it's the most heartwarming thing we've read this week. We're sure your pets have some terrific tricks to get you to pay attention to them, so write them down in the comments below!

When we fully became a pawrent, we understood the true joy of providing for someone. Nothing makes us happier than doing something that brings our dog or kitty purrfect comfort, safety, or joy. Even if it means we have to purrito them every night for the rest of their lives, we'll do it happily.

When we sprained our ankles once, our dog also started walking with a limp - it was the funniest thing. It was almost like they were mocking us but didn't understand the joke. They just saw that we got more attention from our partner because we had a limp, and so they did the same.
