I heard recently that a dog is typically the equivalent of a three-year-old child, in terms of their behavior, how they obey, what they are capable of understanding and what not. I find this fact fairly fascinating and to some extent I can see the reasoning behind the theory. But all I’m saying is, one of the researchers aught to stop by in the evening sometime and watch c-dawg as she transitions from three-year-old to a crotchety old man!
