Do you associate human intelligence to your pet?
Kinda wondering. I was over my buddy's last nite and he proceeded to tell me and my girlfriend about how one tropical fish has a better attitude than another, etc. Its a fish!
Does your dog have actual intelligence, or is it human nature to think that way?
Is a dog bright cause the mutt figured out if it brings back the stick it gets a pat on the noggin?
Cats are often characterized as being intellegent animals. Are they really?
Some lady makes a living hosting a tv show on animal planet where she "psychically connects" with you pet. And the show is a ratings success.
Or are we so stupid and lovey-dovey that we associate an animals' routine with actual brains?
So - let me know what you think - do we give pets too much credit, or not enough?
