Tricky Dog Fakes Leg Injury Until Owner Says One Simple Thing

A dog named Harry went viral after his owner caught him faking a limp, only to drop the act completely the moment his owner said a simple thing.

dog fakes leg injury

God placed remarkable intelligence in animals, and anyone who has owned a dog knows this firsthand. We see it in the way they read our emotions, respond to our words, and yes — sometimes even try to outsmart us.

Harry had been limping around the house, putting on quite the show. His owner noticed and told him that because of his bad leg, a walk was off the table. That was all it took. The limp vanished.

Harry walked around completely normally, not even attempting to keep the act going.

His owner, now fully aware of what had just happened, decided to test him further. He asked Harry about his leash.

Harry lit up immediately. He ran, grabbed his leash, and brought it straight to his owner with his tail going a mile a minute — completely blowing his own cover.

Harry is a good reminder that God fills our ordinary days with moments worth laughing about. We just have to slow down enough to notice them — and maybe keep a closer eye on our dogs.
