If you are found, pretend you weren’t actually hiding.
When dogs are discovered in their hiding place, they can resort to a clever strategy: denial. With a nonchalant demeanor and an innocent look, they try to convince their owners that they weren’t actually hiding in the first place. Whether pretending to sleep or pretending to be surprised at being discovered, dogs perfectly display their acting skills, leaving their owners momentarily perplexed, before succumbing to laughter at the antics of their furry friend.
