I believe that dogs are extremely intellegent and capable of much more then we give them credit for. Moe used to be a great counter surfer(and very succesful at it) Faith would tell on him everytime by barking and alerting me. How did she know this was wrong and she should tell? Why didn't she just wait and share whatever Moe got off the counter? When Lucky was young I had another male about his age. They got along together and played quite a bit. One day the other dog had a toy that was a particular favorite of Lucky's, instead of trying to take the toy Lucky went and got another toy and made a big production of playing with the other toy until the other dog came over to join in, Lucky then ran over and grabbed the toy he really wanted. That certainly took some thought.
