When a Siberian Husky hears someone calling its name, it takes several seconds to finally recognize its owner. As the saying goes, "Dogs are dogs, and Huskies are Huskies." A pet owner shared an amusing experience where she called out to her dog while outdoors. The Husky, upon hearing its name, kept looking around, seemingly unsure who was calling. It wasn't until the third call that the Husky managed to locate the sound, but it still couldn't recognize the person standing in front of it. This prolonged "boot-up" time, lasting several seconds, left netizens in stitches, joking that this must be a purebred Husky!
A female owner shared another funny incident where she temporarily tied her dog to a railing. When she returned to call out to her dog, "Chi Chi", the Husky heard the call but couldn't immediately determine the direction of the sound. It first looked around in other directions. After the owner called out twice more, Chi Chi finally pinpointed the location. However, the Husky's "start-up" time wasn't over yet. Despite the owner approaching closer, the dog remained frozen, as if seeing a stranger, relying on visual and olfactory cues to identify its owner. It wasn't until several seconds had passed that Chi Chi finally recognized its owner and wagged its tail. This convoluted recognition process left the owner laughing and crying at the same time.
The video of the Husky's slow recognition has left many netizens amused, with comments like, "Really silly," "Identification time is a bit long," "Eyes aren't good, ears aren't either, but it's pure," "Is there a brain department in pet hospitals?" "No wonder it's an inherited reflex arc," and "This dog's start-up is too slow!" Other netizens shared stories of their dogs having incredibly strong recognition abilities, able to identify the sound of a motorcycle engine from a distance and know it's time to go home.
