Make It Stop Before My Heart Cute-plodes!
— Ace

A family nursed a malnourished deer back to health. Now it plays with the dog.

Notice the dog and the deer are playing -- acting out aggression routines in sport-form -- but they'e playing two different games. The deer's game is a little more dangerous, as he starts windmilling those hard hooves around.

The dog mostly just wants to play keep-away with the ball.

Thanks to rdbrewer.

9 The deer gets a few good knocks on the dog's noggin ... but then the dawg rips the deer's throat out at the end ... I didn't see that coming. 

Hopefully this family doesn't let little kids play with punching Bambi.

The deer didn't have the first idea what was going on. It was just randomly striking out at the vastly more intelligent dog. Carnivores vs Herbivores.

The deer's a browsing herbivore and has no concept of a game based on fighting over a prey item.  His game is based on the kind of dominance combat he'll have to engage in when he battles other deer for mating rights.

At the end, the dog -- for a moment -- joins in the deer's game of fisticuffs, but apparently it's not as fun as the keepaway game.

I wonder why those two cats didn't just jump on the backs of the deer and dog, take their ears like reins, and ride them off into the sunset.

The cats are just watching because they've already had first hand experience with the fawn's playful hooves.

They're waiting for the "cluebat" to school the dog.  I'm betting that the good folks who own these pets leave the deer and the dog in the yard together, sans ball, and come home to a really unfortunate learning experience.

Posted by: awkward davies at April 02, 2010 11:37 AM (wb68R)

95

my dogs managed to get a game of tag going with a deer last year.  They would chase the deer to the edge of our property (said edge having the invisible fence) and when they turned back to the house the deer would chase them until they would again turn and chase her back to the property edge.  This went on for at least 30 minutes until I realized the deer was simply keeping my dogs from noticing the fawn that was hiding elsewhere on the property.  Brought the dogs into the house and let the deer get her fawn and scram. 

Since then my dogs chase deer but never get too close in case one decides to stop running away.  They like the idea of chasing, not so much the idea of actually catching a deer that is 5 times their size.

My hound/greyhound mix usually races deer by running next to them trying to beat them to the perimeter.  Its all a race to him and he's fast, stupid and utterly deviod of courage when it comes to deer.

The comments attached to the video say that the deer was free-roaming and hung out with other deer, but would come back to the house to eat cat food and play with the dog.  Apparently it's grown and doesn't come by anymore, so the dog is safe.

This meaning that it's now fair game for venison steak.

Yeah... that's odd. I've never seen deer play like that with each other. But it does appear to be playing.

But yeah.. if that deer got any damn bigger that dog is pretty much dead. I'm suprised it didn't get wounded from that video.

The deer is thinking, "Obviously this creature is not a threat and wants to engage in some domination challenge, but why won't it kick back? Why does it keep dropping that stupid toy-thing? I have no interest in that!"

The dog is thinking, "Obviously this creature is not a threat and wants to play, but why won't it try to take the toy? Chase me, chase me and let's have a tug of war!"

"The cats are thinking, "if only that deer was smaller, and couldn't kick to defend itself. You know, more like a rodent or a birdie. Then it would be on!"  

Posted by: Log Cabin at April 02, 2010 12:33 PM (eAFiD)

111 The deer is a baby and the dog is fully grown. When the deer is fully-grown and towering over the dog with its antlers, it won't be so cute when he tries to play "Keep Away."

That deer wasn't allowed to play in any reindeer games. 

 

No, really, keep away is a predator games.  The ball represents food.  It's a food challenge.  Deer don't play food games.  They defend by windmilling and using horns and running.  How do I know this?  I don't.

I dunno if that little deer could really harm the dawg that badly. Dogs are very tough, hounds and retrievers like that one especially.

My hound dog ran full-speed into a fence post head-first, fell over sideways , stood up, shook once and ran off after the dog that had been chasing her.

Dogs play rough.

115 You can tell by the end that the dog had enough. It was moments away from going Chuck Norris on that deer.

116 For those of you of the non-deer hunting persuasion (aka: pussies), deer hooves aren't like horse hooves.  They're split into two individual hooves and not very big or heavy.  Getting hit by one would hurt, but not likely to shatter a skull.

119 This will end very, very badly.

120 I wouldn't bet my life that the deer knew they were playing.

121 Some day, maybe some day soon, that dog is going to realize his little friend is made entirely out of venison. And yes, retrievers - dogs in general- are tough. My lab mix got knocked upside the head with a flag my daughter was spinning (on a six-foot pole) and he just shook his head and kept on going. A hit as hard as that to a person would've caused a nasty concussion, I'd wager.

122 That is really cute, but watching it kinda makes me hungry.  Think I'll get some of that backstrap out of my freezer to marinate.

123 no, really, mammals are amazing and unique in their capacity to play. insects are humorless. fish are oblivious. birds are selfish. only mammals have this ability. love 'em or leave 'em.

124 and i say this as a consumer of mammals, you see, i'm a herbovarian. i only eat vegetarian mammals. peace.

The dog is John McCain and the deer is any DemSen he is trying to reach out to for any given reason.

126 Just in case any venison eaters come back to this thread, I saw this on Emeril.

Soak some dried cranberries in some red wine overnight. Melt some butter in a frying pan, through in a bunch of chopped garlic. Add cranberries and wine. Cook venison in the sauce, serve with sauce poured over venison.

128 Beef, when it is harvested young is called veal. Deer, no matter the age, is called venison. Why is there no bambi age deer meat name? I think it's funny the bitch with the camera yelled at the dog when it acted naturally telling it "don't bite", but let bambi smack the crap out of the predator, while giggling. Turn your back for a day and leave the dog and deer in the back yard and bambi will be dog food.

129 Gomm, you left out reptiles. Being in FL, I can assure you a gator doesn't care what it eats.

130 Those will be some tender, tasty backstraps.  Harvested about 2 days after the deer kills the dog, and the family realizes how stupid this really was.
