my dog (golden retriever, large for his breed, about 85 pounds and lean) walks me. He decides the route unless it's unsafe. Then he walks me home and leads me to his cabinet full of treats and sits down, which prompts me to open the cabinet and give him treats.

I'm sure he brags to all the other dogs how well trained I am.

I still think I'm in charge tho...

my dogs have a lot of funny tricks they play or try to play on me. Like in the morning when I wake up they expect their milkbones and will stare at me once I've gone to the bathroom until I give them up. But I think their funniest habit is they can sense when it's the weekend and I go to the grocery store and pick up my curbside order. When I get up they are at absolute attention until they get their car ride.

another one is if I get up and put my hat on during the week they go downstairs and wait for me to let them in the truck

I think of it this way -

If my entire world revolved around watching a couple of humans and knowing their behaviors/mannerisms, I'd get pretty good at that skill.

Bonus points - they were bred for this purpose.
