If ever there was a contest of popularity on the internet (and we're sure it's already been done) dogs would win it hands down (or at least that's what we want). Let's face it; they're cute little furry things that can brighten your day almost instantly and we have not one but two videos (of the umpteen number found on the World Wide Web) as proof.
Magician and mentalist Jose Ahonen performed this very cute behavioural experiment on dogs. He tries to find out and show us how dogs react to humans barking. Yes, it's as funny as it sounds.
The video shows comedian and voice actor Rudi Rok barking at adorable mutts of different sizes and boy are their reactions hilarious.
While fawn furred Salli gets into a woofing match with Rok (which the later wins by the way), pocket-sized Torsti shows the comedian how it's done, doggy-style. The pint-sized pooches steal the show completely in our opinion.
Watch the bowwows get a taste of their own medicine and get ready to 'bark' with delight.
Jose Ahonen also executed a second experiment to see how dogs react to magic. He begins by showing each pooch a treat, allowing them to sniff its goodness and an abracadabra second later makes the treat go poof. The confusion and frenzy the dogs show is so endearing, it wouldn't take time for you to smile and eventually laugh at the whole act.
And in case you're feeling too bad laughing at the plight of these poor puppies we'll let you know that "all the dogs got treats before and after the trick." Watch the magic unfold:
