All I can think of is the time my squirrel wandered down and my dog spotted it from his nap-place across my legs on the sofa. He used my testes for a launch pad and through the tears of pain, I was laughing hysterically at the look of terror that the squirrel put on just before he ran the fastest 1/4 mile of his little life. They managed three laps before I was able to get up and open the back door, enabling the gray intruder to exit and climb the blue spruce outside to safety.

No, he didn't learn his lesson; he came back again and again. The picture is of the time he came down without looking first and had to do an about-face and run back up as he noticed the dog lying in wait for him, behind some insulation batts.
