Senior moment...?

Despite Jasper being 12 years old, he still has moments of puppy mischief. A couple of months ago, it was pouring down with rain and he asked to go outside for a widdle. He was let out, and then soon after he did his good boy single “Woof” at the door to be let back in. The door was opened for him, but no sign of him.

 It was still pouring with rain, so we wondered if he was sheltering somewhere.

Nope.

Maybe he hadn’t finished so had run off again, so we shut the door again.

“WOOF!”

The door was opened again. No sign of him.

Then suddenly we caught a little flash of a cheeky face from behind the wheelie bin, and as soon as we spotted him he ducked back behind it again!

We told him the game was up, and he was to come in now. Nope, no movement at all!

He eventually reluctantly came in, but it left me baffled. He hates water, there was no shelter on that side of the bin, so what was going through his daft little donut mind?! Maybe just pranking us is enough motivation for a cute and mischievous senior cocker spaniel!
