I heard quite recently that the human/dog relationship is much older than previously thought. Instead of 12,000 years, it is now believed to be as long as 30,000 years, maybe. And the scientists didn't call it a relationship. They called it co-evolution. I seems that dogs only BARK to us humans. It is most-likely their attempt to talk to us, because they see how much talking WE do. Wild dogs do not do barking between themselves. This would explain why so many people can hear if a dog barking is happy/sad/angry... etc.
***** That's not what I heard, I got it from an expert talking about what is special about dogs compared with wolves. Besides which, feral dogs are domesticated dogs gone feral... they are not wild in the sense that wolves are wild.
+GeordieTerrier Okay. :-) Thank you for the additional info. Are you somebody who LIKES dogs... rather than someone who just studies them? (from your handle here, I'm guessing yes.)
***** I am sorry for your difficulties, but hope your relationships with animals continues to compensate, and be rewarding to you. Best wishes to you, Geordie Terrier.
@@patricksarama4963 not just that though. They are masters at reading body language. Unlike humans they communicate very little with sound. Most of their commination goes through body language so they have become very good at reading it. That's also why it's generally much easier and faster to train a dog with hand gestures or a combination of hand gesture and word command.
Molly and I joke about our dog Jack not being the brightest bulb in the pack, but sometimes for fun we call him by other words-Refrigerator! Doorknob! Snack!-using the same tone of voice as if we were calling his actual name and he never responds. Just looks at us like we're saying nonsense. He probably thinks *we're* pretty dim.
@@sselluoss5935 My family used to have a dog we adopted from another family that couldn't care for him anymore, and they called him Duke. We had already had a dog named Duke previously, so we decided we'd call him Dude instead. He responded to it from the start.
Dog can bark and whine at the same time. Like in that bark but, it depends on what one they do most. Dogs can put a lot of other vocal noises into their barks such as growling, whining, howling etc. And, i have noticed sometimes when my dog is excited and when she is hurt she has different whines. That may be just my dog.
I think it depends on context. I think the noises general meaning is that it wants something, so without context it sounds like it wants help, but when its prefaced with a question or stimuli like food or toys you can tell what it wants.
I know what a dog wants by mostly body language but i can understands barks a bot too. Also, my dog does a little dance whenever we come home after an extended amount of time (More than an hour) and barks out the window for a few minutes after one of us leaves. I think he misses us when we go away.
Stacy McClendon Yes! We've always thought that. I didn't think anyone else knew what those were. The ear fringe especially is so rare that I think it must be a part of his mix.
Hm, remembers me to a cartoon, where the talking dog always says "Ho" and his master claims, the dog could say "Rudolph Mole drinks alcohol on the north pole"
The first dog that barked wasn't angry. It was nervous, frightened, and confused. You can't tell that by its bark, but by its stance, its tail, it's ears, and it's eyes. But if you did try to stick your hand through the the cage it would still bite it, not because he was angry, but because of the reasons I listed.
+ArmadilloCat i called exactly what it was just from the barking: "he's apprehensive from seeing a person he doesn't trust / never seen before walking by"
Actually, can we even tell that a dog is angry? I think they're either scared/uncomfortable or protecting their territory/food/whatever when they behave like the dog from this video. Isn't anger a typically human emotion?
The first dog is defending territory or feeling trapped. The second dog is excited. The last dog is just enjoying the sound they make, maybe an invite to play or cuddle.
Wha! My dog doesn't sound like that when he is going for a walk. He sounds yappy and his voice becomes shriller than usual, which signals excitement to me. Also I have a cat, she always makes eye contact with me, sometimes uncomfortably long!
I believe the most remarkable thing about animals trying to communicate with us, is that they actually TRY. It's amazing, going from instinctual vocalizations for the purposes of warning, breeding and finding, mostly instinctual, to vocalizations with a specfic purpose and intent; language -- that's an utterly revolutionary step for an animal's evolution.
That was Mishka the talking Husky saying "I love you!". RIP Mishka! You were such a sweet, beautiful dog! I loved watching your videos. This was a cute video as well!

One of the things I remember is that a dog's "play growl," which you hear while dogs tug on toys, is more vocal than a true growl. I'm pretty sure that kind of logic extends to other areas - generally if you hear a dog making a lot of "Ruuuruuuruuoooroooruuur" noises they're very excited!
I can really can only understand my dog in particular, I have mesmerized all his barks, and what they mean. I even know his sign language, which is most important to dogs.
Oliver is such a gorgeous dog!! He looks like an irish setter/sheltie/beagle, which is a very wild guess. Oliver's breed should become an official breed, it's just sooo beautiful, and I have never been this excited about a dog's beauty.
I've learned that dogs can not see the color red at all, so when you told your dog Oliver to "get your bone", which is red, he can not see it in the grass because the color red does simply not exist to him. It's not because he's stupid he didn't get the bone when you told him to, he simply could not see it.
Humans can see red green and blue, along with combinations and variations of those three colors and with that we can see every color (that we know of, its kinda borderline impossible to describe colors we cannot see because you need to see them for yourself, some colorblind people can see these unique and alien colors, point being we can see virtually all colors). Dogs primarily see yellows and blues. They struggle to see greens and reds at all. Thus while dogs have superior hearing and smelling to humans we have superior sight, humans being sight oriented creatures. So when it sees green grass and a red bone they appear... well its hard to tell but likely grey or white. Colorless. Thus they would blend into each other, however they would be able to see the bone still. It'd just be harder when it basically camoflauges into the grass.
Gary Oak Thank you, I didn't know that. You explained it much better than I could. You know so much about Pokemon--, I mean animals, it's incredible. You've always taught me so much, professor :)
Dogs really learn our behaviour and we learn their. That helps us to understand each other pretty well, some like 95% and more.) Voice, look, hands, emotions - they can read it and responce equally.)
David Lam That is a myth that is popular because *some* breeds have genetic health problems that good breeders will screen for but bad breeders will not, therefore keeping the problems in the genetic pool of the dogs they're breeding. Mixed dogs and mutts can have the same genetic problems that purebreds do it's just that usually they are mixed enough for those genes to be diluted. I have had vets tell me though that dogs that come from good breeders who screen for health problems usually live longer, healthier lives then mutts of the same size.
I got proof, I was in a car, with my friend, his sister, his dad and his dog. I was really sad thinking about what would happen if I didn't get the dog's puppy... She (the dog) went next to me, leaned on me, and looked at me, like saying "wuts wrong??! are you okay?". It was sooo sweet of her to do that!
Actually, Mishka was just mimicking when her owners say i love you. She wasnt actually saying i love you at all. Besides the scientific, i like to think she said i love you too.
I absolutely believe we can learn to speak dog! My dog Lucky (picture) who I've had for 10 years, have a lot of particular sounds that I've learned to separate. He likes to bark at random objects through the night, like announce at the couch before jumping up on it etc. This hardly ever wakes me up. He's got a particular sound for when I'm on the edge of the bed and he wants to jump up, that doesn't wake me up fully, but makes me roll over, and one for "I need to go out RIGHT NOW", and that one wakes me up instantly, because I know it's urgent.
At 5:12 you say "we co-evolved with dogs."We didn't co evolve with dogs, dogs co evolved with us. Dogs didn't change our evolution at all. We changed theirs. It was a one way change, we changed them, they didn't change us.
Do you have any real evidence to support that claim? Do you have evidence that humans let their children play with wolves before dogs became domesticated, for instance?
0:37 That game and the props are very similar to the game we do in preschools and kindergartens for teaching younger children second languages, TPR. It's so weird to see it used for dogs when I'm so used to seeing it played with kids.
I don't like to go into personal history but I have an assistant dog as I am someone who is on the autistic spectrum and I don't think people understand quite how much a dog can change someones life, the responsibility and love I have for my dog has made me less of an introvert and more of a social person and I love my dog so much and he loves me, whenever i feel stressed or down my dog comes to me and rests his head on my shoulder to let me know he's there, wagging his tail, and whenever i sense my dog is stressed I give him a hug, a rub and scratch on the belly and words of relief such as "good boy" and this codependent relationship is really what I needed to help me become the person I am, if I was totally dependent on my dog I would have never grown, if my dog was totally dependent on me, I wouldn't have felt the connection I do as I wouldn't have had someone to be there for me which I needed, it is this codependency that makes having a dog so special.
No. I meant in general. Obedience training, training the dog to do stupid tricks, the master-slave relationship where it's the dog's role to be a subservient pet that fills a void in the owner's life. I'm not criticising the culture of dog ownership and companionship, but some people are clearly far less enlightened than others when it comes to fixing their broken puppy and turning it into a presentable dog-bot.
They are domesticated animals. It is a master-slave relationship. Just like for Horses. Dogs were not always housepets, they had jobs. Then again, humans didn't have much luxury time either in the ancient old days.
I’m impressed that my dog can distinguish real dog sounds versus dog sounds from my phone. I see other dogs reacting to TV and sounds while my dog is completely disinterested. I wonder why. I wish she would watch TV so there’s something for her to do when I’m gone.
There’s nothing wrong with talking to dogs and as a matter of fact a lot of those conversations are far more interesting and satisfying than talking with some other let’s say humans 😂🤣😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Most humans I know brush their teeth. I have kissed a few people. I also had the misfortune of laughing while being knocked to the ground by an English pointer. The pointer thought it would be a good idea to lick my tongue as my mouth was open. Most revolting and disgusting experience I've ever had. It took hours of soap to get the taste out of my mouth. Anyone who says Dog mouths are clean is lying out their ass. They're filthy. They lick their genitals and eat their own poop.
Miguel Torres give me a source on those facts. Do you know what else increases the chance of cancer? Sunlight. Concrete. There is absolutely no reason not to brush your teeth.
Dunkleosteus Humans are the only freaks in animal kingdom to do something as unhygienic as brushing. You destroy the healthy bacterial colony in your mouth every day by brushing, and the bacterial colony in your guts need to work all over again to re-establish it. Without your gut flora you won't be able to digest a single piece of food, and digestion starts in the mouth with your saliva. And we share & exchange useful bacteria with everyone around us all the time (even if we are not kissing them). Even if that's not a good reason to not brush, remember that you save water if you don't.
I'm not going to rant about what you've just said. It is wrong though, and you should do more research. I don't want to get into an argument here. Give me some acclaimed, peer-reviewed studies that link the bacteria in your mouth to the bacteria in your gut and that there is such a thing as "good" mouth bacteria and I will believe you. Humans have different oral bacteria than many animals because we eat more sugars and carbs (food for the bacteria) in the modern day than our bodies are designed for. This is why brushing our teeth is helpful. Animals such as dogs do not have the same high-sugar diet that we do, but they do eat dog food and they eat their own poop, lick their own genitals and can get tooth decay. Ask any veterinarian about canine oral health. I hope you'll take the time to consider what I'm saying instead of simply declaring me wrong. I'm willing to have a proper discussion and respect your right to defend your opinion if you'll show me the same courtesy.
At 0:59 stating my opinion on this “animals understanding is” idea. I just got a puppy not too long ago and she’s becoming very well trained, she’s pretty smart for her age (1 year) but she still has soooo much to learn. Take my 7 (almost 8) year old cat, I feel like I genuinely understand him. He has different meows (his “hello” vs his “I’m hungry” meows differ very much) and I’ve learned to understand what his different toned meows mean. I can actually recognize a meow like I can understand an “Excuse me” at a public store. And I know dogs can understand tones because if I’m mad at something and yell out loud then my dog will look in my direction and look startled because that’s the same tone I use to yell at her if she pees in the house or does something bad. So I’m sure you can train a dog to understand about 80% of your words (with very high praise and reward) but I believe any animal or living organism with a brain complex enough to interact, adapt and understand the world around them can learn. A dog by itself would almost never learn how to open a door and I’ve come to understand this by the many dogs I work with who go to the wrong side of the door 80% of the time (assuming their front door of the house opens the other way) they would eventually learn the door opens from the right side after constant exposure such as learning very neat tasks. Once the dog understands certain terms, they just need to be able to piece it together. My dog understands her tricks with or without words, I trained her with hand motions to accompany it so she can do all her tricks with only my hand motions or no hand motions and words only as they are interchangeable to her.
Always been my belief that dogs know more about us than we know about them. They sure are smart, some breeds more than others. Dogs accept people for what they are. I'd talk my dog all time and swear he understood me. I wouldn't want to think of life without dogs.
I think a lot of recognition is with the first sound. Like you said "ball" and "bone," both beginning with /b/. My dog knows our neighbor's dog's name, "Skeeter." Except that anytime you say any word starting with the /sk/ sound, he'll act the same lol
You also have to know that dogs often can smell your emotions because your body emits certain smells that they can pick up when something is wrong (hence veterinary trips are worse than they are when YOU are nervous and made a big deal about the trip, they sense that tension and worry and act like something will be wrong and are on high alert and panic) They also sense when you are happy, sad, etc.... That is why dogs are so good for emotional help, detecting seizures, when someone is undergoing anaphylactic shock from an allergy, PTSD, and more. How do I know, own several dogs and worked in a veterinary clinic for many years.
So my grandfather and my ancestors were nomads so naturally they had to have dogs to protect the herd and themselves at night from wolves, jackals and bandits and all sorts of animals since they used to live secluded lives in the mountains of Balochistan. My grandfather used to tell us that they could tell from the bark of the dogs whether it was a wolf or a bandit or another animal that had entered the territory. Their relationship with their dogs must have been amazing.
My dog, Scooter, is very smart, to the point where he is capable of thinking about whether or not he wants to listen to us when we tell him to do things. For example, when I ask him "Do you want to go for a walk?" He pauses for a minute, and I can see the little wheels turning in his head as he tries to figure out whether this is a trick of some kind.
@It'sOkayToBeSmart I tried an experiment for myself that you might find interesting. I was staying with a host family in Germany and a cousin of the family came over one day and brought her dog. After the dog was used to me (a new person) I asked her in a very energetic way "Do you want to go for a walk?!?" (in English). The dog didn't respond at all. Then I asked "Willst du spazieren?!?" (roughly the same question with the same inflection but in German) and the dog got very excited and ran to the front door. Clearly it wasn't just the inflection or excitement of my voice, there was at least some meaning behind what was said.

I've learned that dogs can not see the color red at all, so when you told your dog Oliver to "get your bone", which is red, he can not see it in the grass because the color red does simply not exist to him. It's not because he's stupid he didn't get the bone when you told him to, he simply could not see it.
Humans can see red green and blue, along with combinations and variations of those three colors and with that we can see every color (that we know of, its kinda borderline impossible to describe colors we cannot see because you need to see them for yourself, some colorblind people can see these unique and alien colors, point being we can see virtually all colors). Dogs primarily see yellows and blues. They struggle to see greens and reds at all. Thus while dogs have superior hearing and smelling to humans we have superior sight, humans being sight oriented creatures.
So when it sees green grass and a red bone they appear... well its hard to tell but likely grey or white. Colorless. Thus they would blend into each other, however they would be able to see the bone still. It'd just be harder when it basically camoflauges into the grass.
Gary Oak Thank you, I didn't know that. You explained it much better than I could. You know so much about Pokemon--, I mean animals, it's incredible. You've always taught me so much, professor :)
They don't always have to see the object. They can smell it and recognize there is a thing placed on the grass.
They can still see the object -_- it's just gray
Mili Latū dogs can see red😂😂😂they may be colorblind to it but they can still see the object. My dog's kong toy is red and she can see it
5:00 Did anyone else hear, "hello there"?
It's "I love you". No, not you! *Sarcastically* ... Go watch Talking Mishka! That video was uploaded back on 2010 I think?
It's "I love you". Look it up.
ByteMe You say that as if there actually is a correct answer. Dogs don't speak, mate.
Alex, do some research on this dog. Anyways, I had a full conversation with a dog once.
It's saying I love you its a vine
I literally almost shed a tear bc dogs are so special and beautiful creatures. We really dont deserve them😩🖤
ALL PUPPEHS MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COST
That last one sounds like: I love you...
LogDotZip Gaming that’s because it IS saying “I love you”.
@Graystripe that's not actually logdotzip.
I love this channel. simply genius. I have so many more to watch.
Dogs really learn our behaviour and we learn their. That helps us to understand each other pretty well, some like 95% and more.)
Voice, look, hands, emotions - they can read it and responce equally.)
What breed of dog is Oliver? He's beautiful!
Zspec1988 He's a mixed rescue, I have no idea! I agree, though. He's the best :)
plus purebreds aren't really healthy
David Lam
That is a myth that is popular because *some* breeds have genetic health problems that good breeders will screen for but bad breeders will not, therefore keeping the problems in the genetic pool of the dogs they're breeding. Mixed dogs and mutts can have the same genetic problems that purebreds do it's just that usually they are mixed enough for those genes to be diluted. I have had vets tell me though that dogs that come from good breeders who screen for health problems usually live longer, healthier lives then mutts of the same size.
And he even can speak!
It's Okay To Be Smart
He has the head of a dachshund.
I got proof, I was in a car, with my friend, his sister, his dad and his dog. I was really sad thinking about what would happen if I didn't get the dog's puppy... She (the dog) went next to me, leaned on me, and looked at me, like saying "wuts wrong??! are you okay?". It was sooo sweet of her to do that!
the husky was saying i love you
Actually, Mishka was just mimicking when her owners say i love you. She wasnt actually saying i love you at all. Besides the scientific, i like to think she said i love you too.
YES!!! 2 out of 3, I knew the last one was the Siberian husky trying to say 'I love you'
I absolutely believe we can learn to speak dog! My dog Lucky (picture) who I've had for 10 years, have a lot of particular sounds that I've learned to separate. He likes to bark at random objects through the night, like announce at the couch before jumping up on it etc. This hardly ever wakes me up. He's got a particular sound for when I'm on the edge of the bed and he wants to jump up, that doesn't wake me up fully, but makes me roll over, and one for "I need to go out RIGHT NOW", and that one wakes me up instantly, because I know it's urgent.
great video.
JoheeWisdom Thanks!
What dog breed is Oliver?
Emily Walker a collie
Mom can I get a dog
Hell No
Ong Junwei yesh as long as you care for it and love it ^w^
no
Nearly cried at 5:04. RIP Mishka!
I just appreciate you had NOVA playing in the background
I've made and held eye contact with my wife's cat.
Where's your scars?
harooni22
That's why it's "my wife's" cat.
Ashley Mills Throw her a bone :)
I have 3 cats, all of them make eye contact with me.. all the time!!
Can we not go one video without complaining about cats already?
At 5:12 you say "we co-evolved with dogs."We didn't co evolve with dogs, dogs co evolved with us. Dogs didn't change our evolution at all. We changed theirs. It was a one way change, we changed them, they didn't change us.
When you push an object, it always pushes back.
Do you have any real evidence to support that claim? Do you have evidence that humans let their children play with wolves before dogs became domesticated, for instance?
Min 1:47. Watching Cosmos on Netflix?
0:37 That game and the props are very similar to the game we do in preschools and kindergartens for teaching younger children second languages, TPR. It's so weird to see it used for dogs when I'm so used to seeing it played with kids.
I don't like to go into personal history but I have an assistant dog as I am someone who is on the autistic spectrum and I don't think people understand quite how much a dog can change someones life, the responsibility and love I have for my dog has made me less of an introvert and more of a social person and I love my dog so much and he loves me, whenever i feel stressed or down my dog comes to me and rests his head on my shoulder to let me know he's there, wagging his tail, and whenever i sense my dog is stressed I give him a hug, a rub and scratch on the belly and words of relief such as "good boy" and this codependent relationship is really what I needed to help me become the person I am, if I was totally dependent on my dog I would have never grown, if my dog was totally dependent on me, I wouldn't have felt the connection I do as I wouldn't have had someone to be there for me which I needed, it is this codependency that makes having a dog so special.
Dogs are better than people
David Moritz probably true knowing everything people do
Agree d
Too many dogs are tragic vanity projects for their owners.
Its true... Which is absolutely terrible...
you mean crate training?
No. I meant in general. Obedience training, training the dog to do stupid tricks, the master-slave relationship where it's the dog's role to be a subservient pet that fills a void in the owner's life. I'm not criticising the culture of dog ownership and companionship, but some people are clearly far less enlightened than others when it comes to fixing their broken puppy and turning it into a presentable dog-bot.
meh_hi_there yeah you're right, dogs are companions
They are domesticated animals.
It is a master-slave relationship. Just like for Horses.
Dogs were not always housepets, they had jobs.
Then again, humans didn't have much luxury time either in the ancient old days.
The dog is saying "I love you"
And one question do you watch memes?
I’m impressed that my dog can distinguish real dog sounds versus dog sounds from my phone. I see other dogs reacting to TV and sounds while my dog is completely disinterested. I wonder why. I wish she would watch TV so there’s something for her to do when I’m gone.
that last dog bark was the dog saying"I love you"
those barks were easy to guess
I've never had a dog, only cats, and I had I harder time guessing the meaning of the barks. I guess I was comparing them to sounds my cat makes. :P
I hope I am not the only one who decided to watch this video despite not having a dog.
Kayla Frederic nope. I have four cats and a lizard....
Dogs can't see red things next to green
There’s nothing wrong with talking to dogs and as a matter of fact a lot of those conversations are far more interesting and satisfying than talking with some other let’s say humans 😂🤣😂👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
ending it with "and that's the real meaning of a best friend" was deep wow
"Does My Dog Know What I'm Thinking?"
No. It is called Disney Syndrome™.
Where you attach human thinking to animals.
The ending aaaaalmost earned you a dislike.
Otherwise, great vid!
dogs licking faces is disgusting and unhygienic.
Most humans I know brush their teeth. I have kissed a few people. I also had the misfortune of laughing while being knocked to the ground by an English pointer. The pointer thought it would be a good idea to lick my tongue as my mouth was open. Most revolting and disgusting experience I've ever had. It took hours of soap to get the taste out of my mouth. Anyone who says Dog mouths are clean is lying out their ass. They're filthy. They lick their genitals and eat their own poop.
You do know kissing is the exchange of bacteria. Same is with dogs. Btw, some toothpastes have chemicals that can slightly raise the chance of cancer.
Miguel Torres give me a source on those facts. Do you know what else increases the chance of cancer? Sunlight. Concrete. There is absolutely no reason not to brush your teeth.
Dunkleosteus Humans are the only freaks in animal kingdom to do something as unhygienic as brushing. You destroy the healthy bacterial colony in your mouth every day by brushing, and the bacterial colony in your guts need to work all over again to re-establish it. Without your gut flora you won't be able to digest a single piece of food, and digestion starts in the mouth with your saliva. And we share & exchange useful bacteria with everyone around us all the time (even if we are not kissing them). Even if that's not a good reason to not brush, remember that you save water if you don't.
I'm not going to rant about what you've just said. It is wrong though, and you should do more research. I don't want to get into an argument here. Give me some acclaimed, peer-reviewed studies that link the bacteria in your mouth to the bacteria in your gut and that there is such a thing as "good" mouth bacteria and I will believe you. Humans have different oral bacteria than many animals because we eat more sugars and carbs (food for the bacteria) in the modern day than our bodies are designed for. This is why brushing our teeth is helpful. Animals such as dogs do not have the same high-sugar diet that we do, but they do eat dog food and they eat their own poop, lick their own genitals and can get tooth decay. Ask any veterinarian about canine oral health. I hope you'll take the time to consider what I'm saying instead of simply declaring me wrong. I'm willing to have a proper discussion and respect your right to defend your opinion if you'll show me the same courtesy.
At 0:59 stating my opinion on this “animals understanding is” idea. I just got a puppy not too long ago and she’s becoming very well trained, she’s pretty smart for her age (1 year) but she still has soooo much to learn. Take my 7 (almost 8) year old cat, I feel like I genuinely understand him. He has different meows (his “hello” vs his “I’m hungry” meows differ very much) and I’ve learned to understand what his different toned meows mean. I can actually recognize a meow like I can understand an “Excuse me” at a public store. And I know dogs can understand tones because if I’m mad at something and yell out loud then my dog will look in my direction and look startled because that’s the same tone I use to yell at her if she pees in the house or does something bad. So I’m sure you can train a dog to understand about 80% of your words (with very high praise and reward) but I believe any animal or living organism with a brain complex enough to interact, adapt and understand the world around them can learn. A dog by itself would almost never learn how to open a door and I’ve come to understand this by the many dogs I work with who go to the wrong side of the door 80% of the time (assuming their front door of the house opens the other way) they would eventually learn the door opens from the right side after constant exposure such as learning very neat tasks. Once the dog understands certain terms, they just need to be able to piece it together. My dog understands her tricks with or without words, I trained her with hand motions to accompany it so she can do all her tricks with only my hand motions or no hand motions and words only as they are interchangeable to her.
Always been my belief that dogs know more about us than we know about them. They sure are smart, some breeds more than others. Dogs accept people for what they are. I'd talk my dog all time and swear he understood me. I wouldn't want to think of life without dogs.
"Human emotion evolved from animals"...
You kick biological theory and then spit on it.
I think a lot of recognition is with the first sound. Like you said "ball" and "bone," both beginning with /b/. My dog knows our neighbor's dog's name, "Skeeter." Except that anytime you say any word starting with the /sk/ sound, he'll act the same lol
You also have to know that dogs often can smell your emotions because your body emits certain smells that they can pick up when something is wrong (hence veterinary trips are worse than they are when YOU are nervous and made a big deal about the trip, they sense that tension and worry and act like something will be wrong and are on high alert and panic)
They also sense when you are happy, sad, etc.... That is why dogs are so good for emotional help, detecting seizures, when someone is undergoing anaphylactic shock from an allergy, PTSD, and more.
How do I know, own several dogs and worked in a veterinary clinic for many years.
The third dog was saying "I love you" I believe correct me if I'm wrong
So my grandfather and my ancestors were nomads so naturally they had to have dogs to protect the herd and themselves at night from wolves, jackals and bandits and all sorts of animals since they used to live secluded lives in the mountains of Balochistan. My grandfather used to tell us that they could tell from the bark of the dogs whether it was a wolf or a bandit or another animal that had entered the territory. Their relationship with their dogs must have been amazing.
10,000 years of evolutionary bond with dogs made me a vet today😇
@ 5:05 mishka husky says “ I love you”. Talking husky!!!
My dog, Scooter, is very smart, to the point where he is capable of thinking about whether or not he wants to listen to us when we tell him to do things. For example, when I ask him "Do you want to go for a walk?" He pauses for a minute, and I can see the little wheels turning in his head as he tries to figure out whether this is a trick of some kind.
That reminds me of Billy the cat who someone has conversations with her owner through the pet fluent device and it's really impressive
The way you explain in your videos makes me want to listen to more.
Good job. I enjoy your vidz.
When the hush was making that noice the subtitle decides to call it a strange noise RESPECT HOW DOGS TALK M8
I hope my dog understood how much I loved him.
What kind of dog is Oliver? Is he just a mutt? He is *BEAUTIFUL!!!* I LOVE the black streaks on his ears and tail.
Huh! It's pretty cool I recognized Anxiety/distress, happiness and...silliness? In the dog barks.
I actually made a video on my channel breaking down the science of if dogs love us, featuring my Labradoodle Winston!
@It'sOkayToBeSmart I tried an experiment for myself that you might find interesting. I was staying with a host family in Germany and a cousin of the family came over one day and brought her dog. After the dog was used to me (a new person) I asked her in a very energetic way "Do you want to go for a walk?!?" (in English). The dog didn't respond at all. Then I asked "Willst du spazieren?!?" (roughly the same question with the same inflection but in German) and the dog got very excited and ran to the front door. Clearly it wasn't just the inflection or excitement of my voice, there was at least some meaning behind what was said.
