Dogs: The Ensmarteration!

This is part three in a never ending series in which we taunt Gramsci Cat!

Well, smarty farty cat, guess what SCIENCE says! Dogs are SMARTERER than CATS! Read it HERE! Our brains have evolved at a super fast rate because we are social animals: "This suggests the co-operation and co-ordination needed for group living can be challenging and over time some mammals have evolved larger brains to be able to cope with the demands of socialising.” Look at us engaging in brain growing activities here!

You can practically SEE our brains growing here!

See, here is Mr. Science saying some things about our enbiggened brains!

Dr Shultz added: “All dogs are quite good at solving problems, which gives credence to the traditional image of the cunning fox which is a member of the same family. Dogs descended from wolves which appear to have the biggest brains as they live in large family groups.”
Look at Edgrr, the cunning fox! Kicking ass, taking names, solving problems!

While we all knew this it is good that others are recognizing it now.

We agree dogs are very smart, but so are some cats. [Leopards spring to mind.] We think it's more important that we dogs are trustworthy, dependable and loyal. Who in their right mind would have a cat the size of a Great Dane living free in the house with them & their kids? Of course, that's where our superior intelligence comes in :) Being trustworthy, etc. has definite lifestyle perks!

Yuh, your brains are like to burst from your wee skulls at any minute. Might want to watch out for zombies. I hear they eat brains. If you see one coming, through OB out first. I think that the vacuum in his head might just counteract the zombie attack.
