Kinda somehow trained my dogs to expertly remove socks from feet… Started as a puppy with an interest in toe biting, decided to try to mould it into something positive. Lots of "OWW"s later, she will delicately nibble the tip of your sock to seperate a bit of fabric from the toe, then grab on, and tug straight backwards (you gotta point your toe to help her out) and voila! Sock removed.
Thought it was dumb but 7 years later, my pregnant wife thinks it’s the fucking bees knees
