My dog and both cats still like to play with the laser pointer, but all of them know exactly where it comes from. Thankfully it's just like playing fetch with the dog. Totally repetitive and predictable but still entertaining enough that the pet will keep it up indefinitely.
Please, never use a laser pointer to play with dogs. This can cause anxiety, OCD and ultimately lead to serious harm. A frustrated dog may keep searching for the pointer for weeks after. There is a name for the condition, "laser pointer syndrome". Laser pointers are fine with cats but a big no with dogs.
Heh, my dog has never gotten that wrapped up in laser pointer chasing. She knows it's me, she stops when I say 'Done'. Now, when it comes to chuckit balls on the other hand, she's dangerously close to real OCD.
