Polite Police Dogs In China Show Humans How To Line Up For Food

Queuing is an official British pasttime. We might hate it, but we opt for it at any given opportunity - we've even been known to queue in the rain at bus stops for fear of upsetting the person who got there first.

But it looks like we might have been knocked off the orderly queuers leader board by a bunch of polite canines waiting for their dinner.

This snap, apparently taken at a police dog training academy in China, shows a row of dogs patiently waiting for their dinner in a surprisingly organised manner.

Trays in mouths, bums on floor and ears pricked, these pooches know the meaning of an orderly line.

The picture has drawn widespread praise online for doggy obedience.

One Reddit user wrote: “If only humans could be taught to line up this orderly for food”.

Another said: “That lab in the front looks like it's a random dog trying to sneak in for some free food, hoping no one notices it.”

So next time you're planning on taking down the person in front of you in the EasyJet line, think about these doggies and queue in an orderly fashion.
