Thinking dog 🐶

in #dogsofsteemit5 years ago (edited)

I've been thinking a lot about if dogs can think and come to conclusion that they can.

Dogs come daily across situations that requires to make choices, asses a condition or follow commands of the owner. They recognize and respond to familiar voices of people. They also sense danger or an enemy. They are comfortable around owners and friends. They function quite well and you can test them if you put two food bowls in front of your dog, he will be able to chose the one with more food in it.

Dogs have habit, they follow a fixed schedule when it comes to daily dog routine. All of these reactions, habits and activities point out that a dog can think!
It seems that dogs can pick up on our subtle mood changes — they are physically wired to pick up on them.

Their brains are in tune to their humans, and that explains why they're so good at comforting us. They love us at least as much as food 😁 p.s. when my dog recognize familiar face, she bark like crazy
They can feel but their emotional range is more limited than ours. They feel the simple emotions like pain, joy, anger, fear,contentment, love,and excitement. But they probably don't feel the more complex that require conscious thought, like shame,guilt or pride.

Knowledge about how fascinating our dogs' minds actually are, just makes them feel even more like part of the family.
😁
What do you think about that ?

This little creatures are just so fascinating. When I see a little puppy, I just go crazy. They make my heart melt 🤗

LOVE the portraits (they're not mere photos; these are PORTRAITS) of this golden furball posing like Rodin's "The Thinker." Splendid!

Oooh @carolkean thank you 🤗 she is a perfect model, always posing 😊 I'm really not sure if she knows that we're taking photos or is she just natural talent meaning looking good on every photo 🤣

She's a born model, for sure! Beautiful, regal as a sphinx, but much nicer looking. 😊 In that way of dogs, looking more personable and friendly than most cats. Speaking for my own cat, Bobi the Bad, master of the contemptuous or condescending stare, I have NEVER seen a dog regard a human in such low esteem. 🤣

Hahha Bob the Bad that's a perfect name 😂😂 yeah cats are queens for sure, I will never forget my cat when she saw a bird...she was staring at her for about 5 min without moving and when the bird flew away she was in shock, that was the funniest expression on her face 😂 just like this dog, she doesn't run when she see bird, she just stare like your highness with this expression on her face 😂 like you move, I won't do that 😂 and my dog ? She run like crazy when she see birds 😂 they are just amazing and always make us laugh like crazy 😊😊

You get it!!!
The world is crazy, people are mean, but our cats and dogs can make us smile and laugh on the worst of days. Thanks for these anecdotes. Some days I just can't get enough of 'em!

@carolkean you are right, they make our life funnier and crazier too :) and then they look at us why are we laughing like crazy :))

Oh yes they are very intelligent and have great thinking minds and yes very much part of the family. Your photos are gorgeous. What a beauty!

Thank youu 😙 if you have time for learning with them, they can make amazing stuff 😁 my doggy was trained by my husband and she can do so much 🤗 you just need time for them 🤗 this cutie belongs to my parents, they always wanted a dog so we decided, we gave them one 🤗 I think this is the most spoiled dog. At first, they said that the dog would sleep in a summer kitchen, but two days later she had already slept with them on the bed 😂 children moved away so they have a new baby now 😂

Their heads are made for petting :)

So adorable you can't help yourself .

Haha you're right 😂
