We got our 3/4 poodle mix during Covid and remote work.

To this day, he strongly associates me putting on jeans with "we're about to go for a walk" (which isn't entirely wrong, for sure).

I had a toy poodle growing up that would often know what I was going to do before I did.

He also growled at my girlfriend for the only time around when she started cheating on me. Maybe coincidental, but it was the only time I ever recall him growling at anyone and he had known her for 2 years.

Dogs have a keen sense of smell.
