Smart and beautiful. I find Mr Graysome pussycat waits for me to say certain things and he will move ahead of me to be part of my day.

That is interesting. I've always believed dogs to be incredible smart. This was such an awesome study!

Good Afternoon

Sherri, our dog Sadie, is too smart for her own good.  She picked up howling from camp, and I told her she's going to stop that.  It's still freezing cold, and the snow is not melting.  I'm thankful I'm in the house where it's warm.

They very quickly learn the words "treat" and the question "ready to go?".  They're also very good listeners.

I would imagine......

that some dogs are a whole lot smarter than others.   There are a few dumb dogs around.....dumb but lovable.

That is pretty neat about canine intelligence.
