Short Stack

My Maltese dog Short Stack barks wildly at animals on TV And his reflection in the mirror when I hold him up to see The hamburger helper hand from commercials gets a loud reaction Either a real or cartoon animal whether moving or having no action Dogs, chickens, roosters, ducks even people if on all fours Eddy the Jack Russell from the show Frasier he totally adores The family guy dog, Brian gets recognition and so does Cesar Milan The dog whisperer is his all time favorite show that’s why I leave it on Barking only at characters with similar animal traits I find rather peculiar Can he actually distinguish between what is and what isn’t familiar He doesn’t bark at pictures of animals in magazines, photos or a book Or even at my computer screen of animal videos or photos that I took Maybe it is real to him because my television is such a large size I find him mesmerized by the screen as if truly hypnotized Adorable and hysterical at times this odd dog behavior state Although I live alone when the TV is on I have a roommate
