It's no secret that dogs are brilliant, but just how smart are they?
Research suggests that a dog's intelligence rivals that of a human 2.5-year-old baby! That means that dogs can understand about 165 to 250 different words, though when it comes to social intelligence, dogs are even smarter, rivaling that of a human adolescent.
It makes sense, as dogs have been our friends and constant companions for around 32,000 years, giving them plenty of time to adapt to our moods, behaviors, and expressions.
It's little wonder that dogs (and not our closest relative chimpanzees) can understand human finger pointing.
These smartie-pant doggies are certainly geniuses in their own right.
