Wrapping Dogs for Christmas

Shiloh is an Australian shepherd and Abu is a border collie. They are both very good dogs. Or at least very patient as they get wrapped for Christmas. You can see in their eyes that they consider this a very stupid game, but they love their human so they endure it quite stoically. Why do humans out dogs through such nonsense? As far as dogs know, most of what we do is nonsense and they put up with it because they are good dogs. They don't know whether this Christmas wrapping has a bigger meaning for us or not, but it makes about as much sense to them as when humans go off to work or use a porcelain fixture to do their business. Or bring a tree in the house and put lights on it. (via Laughing Squid)
