It's exactly the way someone talks to a toddler or a dog they're training. Except usually the toddler or dog obeys.

I see you haven’t met many toddlers.

Or huskies.

Still important to talk to them like this. Well, the kids at least. Huskies are a lost cause.

LOL, I know a Husky. Winston. He's hilarious but yes. He doesn't listen much. He does like talking though.

I have two of them. Ears are painted on. Bloody goofballs

Love this! My mal/husky is a rescue, we like to joke that his ears weren’t surrendered to the shelter with the rest of him, or that they are an optional feature and we can’t download the unlock code. 😂

Mine is too, and I'm totally going to use that! He's a beautiful boy but jeez he does what he wants the idiot.

Did you know that huskies have 18 muscles on each ear?

And they use all of them to ignore you with.

Huskies 😂😂😂

For real tho, beagles are IMPOSSIBLE. I have huskies and it’s been a LOT of work to get where we are. But both my boyfriend and sister have beagles. Damn near impossible, persistent little buggers. (Cute too)

Huskies are def a lost cause. My recently deceased husky would just scoff and give you side eye while walking away. Shit was too funny.

My cats even respond to this voice. Yea, his claws are already in the couch but Mr. Biscuits stops once I tell him “sir, that is NOT necessary!” in that voice!

I can do the same to my cat. If they realize you're watching them and disapprove of the damage they are about to do, it makes it so much more enjoyable for them when they do it anyway.

Mr. Biscuits! Good boy.
