I've seen pretty a dump dog understand elevators well enough to run down the stairs to follow someone that had just gotten into an elevator.

do regular dogs go all like 'o shit its the cops' when they see a police dog, or is it just another dog to them?

People have to stop acting like animals are the stupidest most thoughtless creatures.

Yeah, most dogs probably understand it perfectly fine because it isn't a great mystery. They go in a room, they feel the acceleration, they feel the deceleration, they go out.

Sure, first time they are probably confused, but they are not completely oblivious to the world around them.

Also, yeah, this post is funny

I don't believe any of the 3 dogs I've had were ever in an elevator. Never thought about that before.

But while vacationing on Maui for a few weeks, toward the end my 4-yo daughter asked, "When are we going back to the real world?"

My dog definitely knows it’s moving and she hates it.

Dogs don't have much in the way of spacial reasoning or logic, possibly due to over reliance on smells and sounds for navigation.

When the doors open and things look different they might be surprised but they quickly forget what the previous floor even looked like. It's as bewildering or thought provoking them as simply turning a corner would be. They don't understand it enough to even be bewildered.

That said, there are interpersonal difference to dogs, some of them might be more than smart enough to get quite confused.

I was at a festival years ago and a couple was sat next to me with a dog that looked like a German Shepherd cross that was clearly on edge, looking around at the crowd walking by. Then a guy with a kid on his shoulders came near. All you could see at first was the guys shoulders and the kid's head above his. You couldn't see the kid's legs because the guy had his arms wrapped around them. The dog jumped up and started barking its head off at them. Until they got to the point where you could see them side on. As soon as the dog realised what was going on it immediately stopped barking and sat back down. I've often wondered what that dog thought was going on at first.

My dog loves the elevator, definitely cant tell the difference since both floors are the same, keeps going to our downstairs neighbors door like its our own before smelling it and realising her mistake.

I know there are dogs that understand how to use the subway, which is basically a horizontal elevator.

Incarcerated robot: “Can you?”

The tweet that inspired Ben Stiller to start Severance

While I've never been able to ask a dog myself, I'd imagine they can smell the changing space.

Friend, I don't understand elevators.

1. Animals understand the world in a lot more detail and depth than we give them credit for. We get caught up in a lot of big brain nonsense, some of which is useful sure, but a lot of the basics, they’re well on top of. They’re not stupid, they just don’t have language or hands.
2. I feel like a lot of human stuff is just total incomprehensible magic to cats and dogs. Cats clearly think humans can change the weather, or it might be different weather at a different door. Because why wouldn’t it be? You guys control the light switches and the doors and cars and stuff. Why would the weather be different? There’s stuff in my domain and then all the world change stuff is your domain. It’s cool, we can still be buds.

Idk man, pick one.
