'animal psychologist' Are you kidding me?

I saw a program a while back where these scientists proved that dogs pay attention to human eyes for clues. When they couldn’t see the humans eyes they was more clueless. Wolves and Monkeys didn’t pay attention to our eyes.

Another major thing I noticed in the program was that they tested both dogs and wolves raised around humans since birth at a task of getting food from a box. The wolves would never stop trying, the dogs would try for awhile then go and look at the human to help them.

Since I just moved an heavy bookshelf for a persistent Yorkie who thinks there is a mouse behind it and annoys me if I don’t help him look for it then I can say Dogs know more about humans than Wolves.

I have a basenji, an ancient breed that has been around for thousands of years. And yet, a recent survey voted them the 2nd most stupid dog breed. Go figure! Maybe they equate “obedient” with “smart”. Basenjis certainly didn’t manage to survive all these years being stupid!
