Boston (DbTechNo) – Ever wondered how smart your dog is? New research says he/she could be as intelligent as a 2-year-old child.
This news comes from canine researcher Stanley Coren who insists that dogs are more like humans than we think.
Dogs are very intelligent, and have the ability to learn commands over time if trained by somebody who knows what they are doing.
Dogs play a huge role in society, both as pets and therapy dogs, to bomb detecting and rescue work.
Speaking yesterday at the American Psychological Association’s convention in Toronto, Coren stated that our beloved 4-legged friends may even have the ability to perform basic math.
“There are a whole lot of people who think of dogs as being just people in fur coats and others who think they are biological robots with no consciousness at all,” he said.
