I used to believe that If you dont talk to your dog it doesnt learn how to bark until my mum asked why I was talking to the dog :s

When I was a little girl I used to believe that a mamma dog got her babies by going out into the woods,sniffing the trees to find the right one, then digging a hole to find her babies!

Once I was told that cats see humans as just more cats. I still have no idea what that meant, but it tricked my mind into thinking that from a cat's-eye view, humans were all giant cats wearing clothes and walking upright. Then I started believing for some reason that if humans WERE cats, all the men and boys would have brown fur and green eyes, and all the women and girls would have white fur and blue eyes. Dunno where THAT came from.

I used to believe when a dog humped you it was trying to dance with you.

I was at my best friends house and her male dog sat in front of us and his wiener came out and I freeked out and was like, what was that??!! So we started poking at it with sticks. We thought her dogs winky waw a giant worm monster living in his stomach.

I used to believe that when each family was out of the house, my dog Nikki, and my godmother's dog and cat Sasha and Bandit would get together and have parties where they would do nothing but dance all night long. I always thought Bandit would win the prize for the best moves.

My sister was convinced that when she grew up she was going to have puppies instead of babies

I had watched an episode of some show, I think it was The Wonder Years, where they had to get a dog "fixed". Of course, being a family program they didn't say what "fixed" meant, and I didn't know what it was, except that on the show the dog kept barking all night before they got him "fixed" and then afterward he didn't. So, at my tender age, I thought that getting your dog "fixed" meant that the vet would make it so the dog couldn't bark any more by taking out its vocal chords or something. I believed this for a couple years, too.

The children in my husbands family were fascinated by dogs since they had none while growing up, so his parents told them that if they watched a dog while he was "doing his business" they would get pink eye! To this day, my husband still gets nervous if he sees our dogs going to the bathroom.

When my Dad was going out to the Pub my Mum always told me he was going to see a man about a dog. As we lived on the farm and already had three dogs I was always confused as to where we were going to put all these dogs!

When I was younger I had a religion class that was about evil spirits being possesed in people's body, or maybe it was just something out of the bible. That night my cats were acting weird (as cats do quite frequently) so I asked my teacher if animals could be possesed too, he told me that it was "possible" so at that point I believed that my 2 cats were really demons and I was afriad to ever be alone in a room with them.

My little cousin Lauren who is 8 truly believes she can talk to our cats and dogs and they seem to understand her..O.o

I remember thinking dogs naturally ate cats.

I believed that the natural heirarchy of nature in this regard was that mice ate cheese, cats ate mice, and that dogs ate cats. And this, of course, was why dogs chased cats and cats were afraid of dogs.

When I was 3 or 4 my dad told me that if I touched a cat and I din`t wash my hands right away my thongue would become blue and I won`t be able to speak. I realized that this wasn`t true when I was about 12. Guess what, now I have a cat and when I touch it nothing happens!

When i was very young a bunch of kids ran around the corner of a building saying there was a doberman pincher.
When i looked ,i saw a butterfly and for years i thought a doberman was a pinching butterfly.
