This information is hot off the press: Dogs really do understand human language. Well, maybe not every word, but...apparently a few scientists in Hungary conducted a study and found that "dogs understand both the meaning of words and the intonation used to speak them." The venerable Washington Post reported these findings a few weeks ago. And this witty blog for The Huffington Post "explains" the implications of this study and lots more.
But we think the real question for humans is whether they understand us. Do you think you understand your canine companion? We'd love to hear what you think!
