At least, many dog owners think so. New scientific studies actually show that dogs understand a lot about us humans. For example, they can figure out what humans can and cannot see. Some dogs can even distinguish large numbers of toys by name, like Rico, the internationally famous Border collie. But do dogs also understand our emotions? Can they grasp cause and effect relationships? What fascinates us humans about dogs? Is it only the proverbial ‘puppy dog eyes’ that make dogs look sympathetic? Or is it the fact that these animals have grown very well-attuned to humans and are willing to cooperate with them? In a total of ten chapters, Juliane Bräuer and Juliane Kaminski present the results of the most important scientific studies of the last twenty years on dog cognition.Biomedical and Life Sciences SeriesBiologyPsychologyZoologyNeurosciencesCognition in animalsCognitive neuroscienceBiological SciencesBehavioral Sciences and PsychologyZoologyNeuroscienceAnimal CognitionCognitive NeuroscienceBiology.Psychology.Zoology.Neurosciences.Cognition in animals.Cognitive neuroscience.Biological Sciences.Behavioral Sciences and Psychology.Zoology.Neuroscience.Animal Cognition.Cognitive Neuroscience.590636.7Bräuer Juliane1117306Kaminski JulianeMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910544849103321What Dogs Know2644875UNINA
