If you think your dog behaves like a little Einstein, it probably is
New research by scientists in Sweden & Hungary has documented that modern dog breeds have much larger brains, capable of more, than their ancient predecessors
They found this to be the case - an increase in brain size - in all modern breeds
They attribute it to the domestication of dogs into more complex, home/social environments, more rules & commands, more attention to human interaction & urbanization
865 dogs, 159 dog breeds & 48 wolves were part of the research
By comparison, dog brains are 3/4th the size of wolf brains
The scientists say that wolves are likely more mentally challenged by the need to find food and ward off prey than dogs which have been domesticated for 25,000 years.
