Skadi has already made a name for herself as a flying dog, but apparently soaring through the sky with her mom wasn’t enough adventure for one Hungarian Vizsla.

She wanted tips and found a perfect way to get them. In a funny video, we see her carrying a cup around the house, expecting her parents to put some treats inside.

You might wonder why, but dogs love mimicking things. She saw her parents give coins to a person begging with a cup. So, she made the logical conclusion. If cups are for getting money, maybe she can get some treats as well.

Honestly, it is hard to argue with her logic.

Skadi took something she saw her humans do and created her own doggy version of it. Apparently, it works.

Dogs are great at learning what gets them rewards. Skadi saw her parents reach into their pockets, take out coins, and put them into a cup, and she kept that information stored for later.

One commenter suggested Skadi should take her cup on walks and make it profitable. Considering her determination, it might be a great idea.

Once the popular Vizsla gets her treats, she runs away and eats them from the cup at a safe distance. She is not simply asking for treats. Skadi worked out the entire transaction, including where she wants to enjoy her profits.

The flying dog has already mastered the skies. Now, she is working on her treat fund. Business is going well for this popular dog.

A Reputation for Unusual Adventures

Skadi is famous online as the “flying dog.” She and her mom, Anna Berger, have built a social media following around their adventures.

Notably, they go on tandem paragliding. Anna loves to bring her everywhere, on camping trips, hiking trips, and flying. The pair even travels to international paragliding events.

Now, Skadi has found another quirk. Some dogs sit for treats, others stare, and some might place a paw on your knee the moment you touch your fork. Skadi saw something that worked, and then applied the same protocol to her daily needs.
