You just might have a Malamute;
If you get up to get something to drink and you come back and find your sandwich missing
If your dog got into your dirty laundry, and stole your shoes, misplaced them. Once you find them you notice that there isn't even one scratch on them, you then realize your dog was just looking for a reminder of its friend to sleep with

If you go camping out in the snow and the dog will not come inside the tent or cabin, it wants to sleepout in the COLD snow
If your camping, you unzip your tent and you look for your dog, all you see through the snow is a pair of black nostril holes peering from the snow surface and hear a cozy comfortable slumbering animal under there (don't brush the snow off, its the dogs wind blanket)
If you bring your dog with you to a neighbors house, you turn and notice the dogs gone, then after a thoroughsearch of the neighborhood you come home to find the dogpanting heavily laying next to the water dish waiting for you with a HUGE grinon its face
If at 6 in the morning after you wake up you hear them playing outside ever so quietly, then as soon as they realizeyou are awake they really start roughing each other up, as as soon as they see you peek out of the curtain all activity ceases and they come running to the window or they go lay down to rest (next time peek more carefully)
If you look into the dog yard and see an empty yard, you open the back door to see if they are still inthe yard, still nothing, then you simply rattle a food wrapper and they come out of the woodwork like a freight train
When your dogs periodically plan andstage a yard breakoutand make all necessary preparations overnight,and promptly execute the plan in the morning 5 minutes before your alarm clock goes off when you are most vulnerable from not being ableto stop them, then you spend the next halfhour rallying them up.
