Today, my dog got out of the house. I was running after him and remembered the old "pretend you're hurt" trick. I got on the ground, and cried out as if I was hurt. My dog just kept running. FML

Hey guys. I did end up finding my dog. For those who said get a treat or meat, my dog would be way down the street by that time. My dog had stopped to "say Hi" to my neighbor and her dog. I used this method because my dog was trained to come to me when I lay down, but something made him run instead. In training meat was put on the ground and I was put on the ground and my dog chose me first over the meat. He is a good dog really, this is his first actual stunt hes pulled. Anyway, just thought it'd be nice to fill you guys in.

Are you sure your dog isn't a bitch? Get it? Haha...no? Okay :( Hope he came back! It took us awhile to train our dog not to run.

well, actually, dogs can smell real fear/pain. so most likely he could tell you were fine and thought you were just being a weirdo human like always

I wish I could smell fear and pain. Then I could look my enemies in their eyes before I blow Them up...with kindness and affection

Yes. I yell "wolfhound" when I'm injured. It used to work quite well, but I've been ignored the last few times I've been hurt. I should probably scream "sheeeeeeep!" from now on. I might get better results.

My grandpa had a dog like Lassie, so he pretended like he was really hurt, and his dog just stood there looking at him funny.

There's a reason he/she ran in the first place I don't think it has any remorse for doing so either.

I think the "wave around some meat at him trick" would have worked better.

Waving some meat around might work better...I am immediately sorry.
