Hilarious and entertaining - thank you.
I definitely think there is a difference between remembering things and deja vu and I'm not sure how you can tell a dogs thinks it's been there before, or this has happened before. WI had a German shepherd many years ago who took a dislike to an ornamental horse head above a garage door. We could walk different routes but as soon as we got to that drive she would whip round and bark like crazy at it. Was that just remembering where the horse head was or did the sight of it trigger something other 😂.
