Some dogs are able to do some pretty wild and impressive tricks. And why not? After all, our canine companions can be some pretty intelligent creatures when they want to be. Or at least some of them can be.
There are also those dogs who seem to possess an unintentional genius for doing certain things, like flattening cardboard boxes. Take the adorable German Shepherd in this video, for instance. He is nothing short of a box flattening master, LOL!
As this video shows, this German Shepherd possesses tremendous box flattening instincts and intuition. Right off the bat, this guy knows that this box is much smaller than he is, and that's about demolishing it by simply walking into and lying down side of it like he's a cat.
That easily took down one of the boxes' walls. And like any good dog, he looked up at the camera/his human with an expression of joyous pride. It's as though he were trying to say, 'Hey, did you see that? Aren't I doing a good job?'
He then lifts one of his massive paws and puts it right down on the corner of the box, tearing right through it like a karate master chopping a board in half.He then gets up and rolls around to flatten that side of the box even more. Two walls down, two to go.
For the third wall, this guy decides to use the classic canine technique of biting at the corner and tearing it apart. And of course, he has the sweetest look on his face while he does it.
At the end, with this box completely demolished, he looks up at his human, the box in his mouth, eager for approval and as adorable as can be!
This German Shepherd Struggles With Larger Boxes
As this other video shows, as impressive as this German Shepherd's box flattening skills are, larger boxes are still a tricky undertaking for him.
He walks right into this box and sits down, like before, but this time, this box is bigger and sturdier than the other one. He fits perfectly, sitting up inside of it.
However, he quickly realizes what needs to be done and attempts to lie down inside the box, breaking through one of its corners.
He then gets up and attempts to pull the same move again, but it doesn't work quite the same way, with his legs and tail spilling out of the broken end of the box.
Quite comically, he ends up falling out of the box, lying on his belly and looking up into the camera, as though to say, 'I don't get it? What did I do wrong?'
There is no doubt that his box flattening skills are impressive, but as the second video shows, he still has a lot to learn when it comes to breaking down bigger boxes, LOL.
