Only saw stills at link. Needs video.

This is interesting to me because I have a very smart dog. He knows many commands and is independently very smart as well. I know he has good sense of smell, sight, and hearing. He will see another animal in real life or on TV and knows the difference and will give appropriate curiosity or attention. But music? I know he can hear things well, but never once seems to appreciate or even discern a 'beat'. I have often wondered how animals, and smart dogs in particular, seem to be oblivious to the captivating beat of music.

Maybe I can get a large government grant to study this further.

The music was applied to the video to match the already choreographed steps. Just like all of the dancing parrot videos.

“double dog tricks”?

Isn’t that an AVN award?

My sister had a Border Collie. I can’t stand the breed. The rainmen of dogs, supposedly the smartest dogs alive. She picked a fight with my rottweiler who was three times her size (and actually one of the most easy going dogs I’ve ever known.) My rottie knew it would not be a fair fight, and did nothing more than a very loud warning growl that elicited submissive urination in the BC.
I was not impressed with the breed’s intelligence thereafter.
