He didn't anticipate. Dogs don't anticipate.


They most certainly do, my dog anticipates me coming home..that's been
proven
Anticipates getting his dinner
Anticipated going for a ride as he sees me getting dressed
Anticipates going outside with me when he sees me filling my hummer feeders
Sees me going into the drawer where the nail clippers are he anticipates
getting his nails clipped and takes off.
Anticipates many things.


an·tic·i·pate ( P ) Pronunciation Key (n-ts-pt)
v. an·tic·i·pat·ed, an·tic·i·pat·ing, an·tic·i·pates
v. tr.
1.. To feel or realize beforehand; foresee: hadn't anticipated the crowds
at the zoo.
2.. To look forward to, especially with pleasure; expect: anticipated a
pleasant hike in the country.
3.. To deal with beforehand; act so as to mitigate, nullify, or prevent:
anticipated the storm by boarding up the windows. See Synonyms at expect.
4.. To cause to happen in advance; accelerate.
5.. To use in advance, as income not yet available.
6.. To pay (a debt) before it is due.


That's exactly right Finola. But the original posting is really just a
toll trying to cause problems. It's best not to feed them.
