Now, whoever said that dogs are stupid?


They just don't mind making a fool of themselves.

In any case, this dog rules!

People do the same all the time. That mean they rule too?

That was a rhetorical question, but yes. But cats don't call the ambulance (okay, so they do warn owners if the castle is burning, but that's a different story altogether).

As long as they don't mind having people laugh about them for a bit, then yes, they rule too.

Well, dogs don't call the ambulance either, unless they've learnt how to use a telephone since I last checked .

Sure, they sometimes raise the alarm, but that's not nearly as clever...

Did you read the article? This dog did use the telephone. The cell phone was pre-programmed so when the dog pressed 9 with his mouth, 911 was dialed.

You're right, they don't. Instead, they simply sit there with a "Bitch-that's-what-you-get-for-not-changing-my-box-often-enough" grin on their exquisite faces.

I heard about a cat that would flip out whenever it say a trafic cop walk down the street, alerting the owner so she can move hear illegaly parked car away untill he passes by.

But yeah, dogs are really clever bastards that only play dumb.
