Is Your Dog As Smart As A Two Year Old?

The video explores the cognitive abilities of dogs compared to humans, particularly toddlers. It discusses how dogs and children can be studied using similar experimental methods, revealing insights into their cognitive processes. The video highlights differences in language learning and imitation between dogs and children, as well as variations in brain activity. It also examines the concept of self-awareness in dogs, suggesting that traditional human-centric tests may not fully capture animal intelligence. The video emphasizes the importance of understanding species-specific differences when evaluating animal cognition.
