| Re: are dogs capable of complex thoughts?? That's a good question. I saw on the news a few years ago, a lady who had an epileptic seizure. Her Rottweiler dialed 911, barked into the phone until medics arrrived. Then the dog unlocked & opened the door to allow the ambulance medics in. How does the dog know to do this?
You can't keep test training the dog by making people have seizures for the dog to learn this behaviour. I would think that in the middle of a person having a seizure, there would be no time for training. As that person would need medical assistance asap. IDK, it could be possible (as anythings possible) for some dogs to have a little bit of a complex thought process, but nothing like what humans have. |
