Dogs are about as intelligent as a two-year-old

Studies have shown that dogs can learn over 100 words and gestures

Which puts their intelligence and understanding of us on par with a two-year-old.

However, dogs are much easier to train than a two-year-old!

They’re used for all sorts of jobs, from military roles to assistance dogs

Because they’re both clever and extremely loyal animals.
