CardiCorgiOwner - that is a pearl of a photo.
I am sure that dogs mostly ignore television and if they don't, a lot are told to leave it because of the response they might make to noisy television moments or programmes. Taylor use to talk back when another animal - especially a dog - made some comment on tv. But we told Taylor as a pup to ignore it because it was coming from the tv and wasn't real life. And he does just that since we have been saying " Taylor it is only on television."
However on one day he heard the train track crossing bells on national tv that belong to our local crossing. He pricked up hjis ears, went directly to the tv set and stared right at it. He certainly recognises our own local bells from any other in the country, in the world. He has heard them often enough.
Dogs do see tv pictures differently to humans. They don't see tv as continuous but as a series of photos.
It is quite wonderfull if a dog has the patience a fortitude to look at a programme on tv intently and take in the scenes and actions. Taylor got on tv when he and I were interviewed in a tv studio last year and Taylor performed in a kind of studio agility course designed just for Taylor. But he shows no interest in watching himself or me.
