When children arrive in the family, parents decide to opt out of some of the activities they used to do before the kiddies. Crafting, working out and other leisure activities are the ones to suffer, to make time for the young ones and the parents' adapting to the new responsibility. However, when the children get older, parents get some more and more free time, to get back to their former favorite pastimes. This father and his 2-year-old son enjoy a workout together in the basement gym. Sometimes you've got to get creative to stay in shape, but that is not the only reason this video is pure awesome. Our kids look up to us and they tend to mimic everything we do, be it good or bad. That is why some parents decide to show their kids their own favorite things, like favorite sports and teams, favorite pastimes, their craft or to teach them an instrument. Besides the precious time spent for bonding, it helps little kids find something they are good at and fall in love with it. It doesn't hurt if it is something their parents like too, though :) So show your kids the things that you know best and hope that they will grow to like them as well!

Huskies - if you didn’t see all that fur, you might think that they are just tiny grumbling toddlers. If you saw the fur, then you’d know that they are just not so tiny grumbling toddlers with an ability to withstand the toughest of winters. They’ll probably whine about that too, but they’ll make it through unscathed. It seems that whatever we do, they’ll find a reason to sneak in a disapproving look. But we love them anyway. How could we not, when we know that each protest ends up with a scratch and the most beautiful of smiles ever?! They might pretend they are the broodiest dog breed ever, but deep inside, they are just like any other dog, a furry ball that just loves to play, eat and cuddle up to a friend. If you don’t think such situation is possible with these puppers, you definitely should check out the following video. If there is one thing huskies are absolutely mad about, it’s food. Okay, this might apply to most dogs, but huskies are extremely <a href="https://rumble.com/v3js8z-shiba-inu-puppies-have-an-argument-over-ball.html" target="_blank">vocal</a> about this, so we’ll just crown them as the supreme food enthusiasts. Unfortunately, this means that living with more than one husky pupper at a time can be quite the challenge, just take a look at this owner’s everyday routine. The red husky really wants the other's food, but she is pretty picky and doesn't eat it half the time. However, she always taunts and yells at the red husky if she tries to get any. They do this almost every day! How insane is that! Huskies make for great pets. They are very protective of their own, making them look quite stubborn from time to time, but it’s all in good nature. Husky owners know that it’s a delight to have them in your home. They might not always follow your commands, but just remember that you own a living being with its <a href="https://rumble.com/v4fvlz-conversation-with-a-husky.html" target="_blank">own character</a> and not a mindless computer, and you’ll be able to experience the husky charm. As we all know it can be very difficult at times to get our children out of bed without making a big fuss. Parents in particular can very much relate to this situation. However this kind Husky has everything under control since it does it with perfection, let alone the fact that he wakes up this little baby with a smile on her face. Take a look!

This sweet baby girl and her doggy are so gentle with each other. Their incredible bond together is so precious!

They say the dogs can sense when people are sick or not feeling well, especially this Alaskan malamute as he walks inside and sees little boy on the couch. He walks up to boy and puts his head on him. This is just another example of a dog’s loyalty.

This do runs to the basement and goes wild after hearing cartoon sound effects. Hilarious! Do you know what happens when a dog with a lot of energy hears funny cartoon sounds? The result will surprise you! Dogs have an ear and a nose far superior to humans, so they react very differently to the sounds of their environment, sometimes they can even lose control. The sounds of cartoons are usually fun for everyone, since they are acts for all audiences, even for dogs, maybe that's why this dog enjoys the sound of cartoons so much. This adorable Alaskan Malamute becomes completely crazy and very fast when he hears the sound effects of the cartoons, throughout the video you can see how the dog runs through the basement at high speed, obviously the sound effects of the cartoons are a source of energy for this adorable dog! Very funny! If your dog starts running in circles and then has other symptoms, such as seizures, your dog may have a neurological problem, possibly related to distemper. In addition, some dogs present these episodes after having had severe blows to the head or strong infections of the middle ear. In any of these cases, go immediately to the veterinarian. Although this behavior is often caused by excessive emotion, boredom and frustration caused by lack of physical and mental stimulation can cause your dog to run in circles. Do not forget to walk him daily for enough time, play with him and give him objects, such as a kong-type toy filled with peanut butter or prizes, to help him concentrate on other things and not run in circles. Although the reasons are not known exactly, everything seems to indicate that there is a genetic predisposition in certain races to run in circles. For example, bull terriers usually run in wide circles, while German shepherds usually prefer to turn on their own axis or even make movements in the form of eights. Sometimes ... it's just fun! If your dog occasionally runs in circles when you are playing with him, if he does when you start playing to chase him and have him chase you or when you are throwing the ball, this is completely normal. Puppies also often have a predilection for turning on their own axis or chasing their tail. Actually, they are having fun and discovering the world. Anyway, if you notice that your dog begins to do it obsessively, it is important that you consult your trusted veterinarian and, if you consider the reasons to be psychological, you can go to an ethologist, that is, a canine behavior specialist. part of what happens in the human brain, it is even harder for us to know what animals think, because we have no way of putting ourselves on their skin. Despite this, most experts agree that dogs experience some emotions very similar to us, among others, happiness. Dogs always have a good sense of humor and are always willing to play with their owners, so don't waste your time and have fun playing with your dog!

What’s your worst nightmare when it comes to food? For some people, it is uncooked food, for someone who is waiting for their food for hours, but for us is sharing our food. You know how they say sharing is caring, but for us, that rule doesn’t apply. If you want to eat, get your food. This protesting dog feels the same as we do, he really does not like sharing his food with anybody, and when somebody tries to take his food, he howls in protest because he really does not like when people touch his food or even worse tries to eat it! What a nightmare. Take a look at this adorable video and this mad and slightly hungry Alaskan Malamute. Whatever you do, do not get between this dog and his food! Dude, the Alaskan Malamute, goes over to this baby girl's high chair to see what food scraps he can find, but then realizes she is crawling toward his food bowl to eat his <a href="https://rumble.com/v5b74l-kitten-very-protective-of-her-food.html" target="_blank">food</a>. He is not so sure about that! “Get your own food hooman, don’t try to eat mine” we believe that he is trying to say. What a hilarious moment caught on camera. Dogs will share food with other dogs. Okay, maybe your dog doesn’t show this tendency at home enough for you to believe it, but in laboratory settings, it happens. Believe it or not, some dogs love to share food, but that is not something really common. There is no doubt that dogs love food. They will give everything just to get their paws on some food, and when they have it, they are not ready to share it with anyone. Dogs are always determined to get their paws on something they like, and when they get man oh man, what a delight is that for them. Dogs have been found to be very stubborn when it comes down to getting what they want, and what they want is to eat their food all alone without no one bothering them and not stealing their food. Overall, underneath all that fur and the muscle where the <a href="https://rumble.com/v77lwj-alaskan-malamute-gets-jealous-every-time-he-sees-people-hug.html" target="_blank">Alaskan Malamute</a> is a very gentle soul. This video is another proof that dogs are the most hilarious creatures in the world! What if you stand on this, do you like to share your food with someone or not?

Patience is a virtue and this is the most patient dog you have ever seen. What a good boy! Usually, you had expected a large muscular dog like him to assert his dominance and simply scare his owner out of the way when he is hungry, But not Karma! He just waits patiently and needs permission to eat his food. The owner writes: Malamute loves meal times more than anything else and would eat and eat and eat if allowed. In the past Malamute would dive straight into his bowl once his food was served but has now learned to sit and wait for his owner to tell him when to go. "Whenever there is food around, Malamute sits on his two hind legs waiting for me to feed him. ''He sits like that until I give him permission to eat ’‘Such a kind Soul. Dogs love being rewarded particularly with food/treats but some can get so excited at receiving a reward they forget their doggie manners. Whether your dog is too grabby with toys or dives into their food bowl at mealtimes there are some steps you can take to prevent/stop this impulsive behavior. Teaching a dog to wait for food can be difficult at first but with little training, they will soon learn to be more patient. If you want to work on impulse control it is important to introduce a keyword/cue such as "wait" when dishing out your dog’s treats. This type of training requires a humane approach by teaching your dog an alternate behavior. Firstly put a treat/food in your dog’s bowl and hold the bowl at chest level. Then ask your dog to sit and start to lower the food bowl towards the ground. Ask your dog to "wait", if they are able to sit still in one place whilst you lower the bowl towards the ground praise them for doing well. If your dog decides to move then raise the bowl or remove the bowl from the ground and repeat. Once your dog has mastered sitting still whilst you lower the bowl/place it on the ground wait a few seconds then give your <a href="https://rumble.com/v6f3od-great-dane-puppy-enjoys-his-first-ride-on-a-pool-floatie.html" target="_blank">dog</a> another cue such as "go" so your dog knows it is okay to go forward to their treat. Over time you will notice your dog already sitting and waiting for his food to be served before he <a href="https://rumble.com/v31c8k-puppy-dives-into-homemade-ball-pit.html" target="_blank">dives</a> in and waiting on your cue to go.
