Sneaky Dachshund Moves Clock to Get Extra Meals

Crusoe, the ever-hungry and mischievous Dachshund, has a hilarious and brilliant way of ensuring he never misses a meal. While most dogs rely on big eyes and pleading looks to get an early dinner, Crusoe has taken things to a whole new level—by bending time itself.

In Crusoe’s household, dinner was once served promptly at 6 PM. However, his persistence gradually chipped away at this schedule, moving it earlier and earlier. First, it slipped to 5 PM, then 4 PM, and if Crusoe had his way, it would be served at breakfast time. His parents, fully aware of his antics, tried to put their foot down, but Crusoe was determined to outsmart them.

One day, with hours still left until dinner, Crusoe’s mom refused to cave in to his relentless demands. Frustrated but undeterred, Crusoe came up with a plan that was equal parts devious and hilarious. If time wasn’t moving fast enough for his liking, he would simply move it himself. In a moment of comedic genius, Crusoe trotted over to the clock, nudging the hour hand forward with his nose. Then, he confidently strutted over to dad, wearing his most innocent expression, ready to cash in on his clever trick.

Dad, completely oblivious to the deception, glanced at the clock and assumed it was mealtime. Without hesitation, he filled Crusoe’s bowl, unknowingly rewarding him for his ingenuity. Crusoe’s victory was sweet—and delicious. But one triumph was never enough for this determined Dachshund. The very next morning, he attempted the same scheme on mom, hoping for another early breakfast. His persistence was unshakable, his methods laughably brilliant.

When his parents shared the video of Crusoe’s antics, the internet couldn’t get enough. Though the scene was staged as a playful skit, it resonated deeply with dog lovers everywhere. Fans flooded the comments, calling him a “clock-setting genius” and sharing similar food-related schemes from their own pets. Some even joked that their dogs would soon be learning how to change digital clocks and phone alarms.

Beyond the laughs, Crusoe’s story is a heartwarming reminder of just how clever and determined our furry companions can be. Whether it’s food, belly rubs, or extra playtime, dogs have a way of making their needs known—often with hilarious and unexpected results. One thing is certain: Dachshunds like Crusoe are absolute experts at getting exactly what they want, one sneaky trick at a time.
