A viral video captured the moment a dog pretended to have a broken front leg so it can deceive someone to give it food.
The dog limped towards the person across the road to collect food from his hand. As soon as it got the foot in its mouth, its legs suddenly became good and it ran off.
The dog was suspected to be a stray one. Experts say dogs can learn such behavior over time as they discover humans feel pity and tend to give food or help injured animals.
They have also been witnessed to behave as though they were sick or injured after learning that it gets them more attention from their owners or caregiver.
Dogs have also been known to mimic the behavior of people around them, especially their owners. The video below of a dog limping while it walks with its owner who had an injured leg and moved about with the assistance of clutches attests to this.
