Basic Trope: A dog goes after dinosaur bones like they were normal ones.
- Played Straight: Fido gets loose in a museum and goes after a mounted T. rex skeleton, taking away the legbone and making it collapse.
- Justified:
- Fido is in the mood for fetch, this is the closest stick he could get in his jaw.
- Fido is a K9 unit that's been trained to capture illicit materials, and the cops are busting a fossil smuggling operation at the museum.
- Inverted: Fido gives the museum a dinosaur bone he found digging in the yard.
- Played for Horror: Fido is a Hellhound that's been inadvertedly summoned and biting down is how he ressurects the dead.
