This Dog Can Play Ping Pong Better Than A Human!

I know dogs can be very sports minded and there are even events that highlight different sporting activities that dogs excel in… but ping pong?? Now that’s really amazing! Watch this Border Collie, he’s one smart dog and can play ping pong better than some of us! Plus, it looks like he’s truly enjoying playing the game!

He does give a lot of “mouth” though because he “talks” the whole time he is playing, which crack me up big time! This dog reminds me of athletes like Mohammed Ali. I’m sure if we could only understand what he’s saying, his monologue would pretty much be the kind that Ali, Mayweather and the likes would say. Now that’s enthusiasm but hush now doggy, let’s have a game, how about that?

Dogs never cease to amaze me! They are so smart and can do so many things that we can do… and sometimes even more! Share this video with other dog lovers, I’m sure they’re going to be in awe of this sporty doggy!

This Dog Decides He Has A Better Trick Than The One Planned

Have you ever tried to do tricks with one of your dogs, while the other one is watching? For me, I find it a little difficult because they always try to steal off treats from each other. So when I try to let one of my dogs balance a treat on his nose, the other one would want to barge in to steal the treat, and end up ruining the other dog’s concentration.

That’s sort of what happened to the two dogs in the video below. One is trying to balance a treat on his nose. And he’s doing a pretty good job at it, he has great focus and concentration. But then here comes another dog and he’s about to ruin the show! Watch the video below and see what happens!

Awww…the look on that poor dog’s face seems to say, “He stole my treat! Aren’t you gonna do anything about it?” I think this dog deserves more treats for doing the trick and for being so patient! Don’t you agree?

Study Says Wolves Have Better Disposition Than Dogs

A study was conducted on wolves and their behavior in relation to each other as a pack. What was found that the key to the wolves’ success in the wild has something to do with them having a built in tolerance that’s higher than seen with domesticated dogs.

According to lead author of the published report, Friederike Range, “Wolves cooperate more in terms of breeding, defending territories and probably hunting. Dogs are scavengers.”

Initially, the researchers were of the mindset that domestication had bred a higher tolerance in dogs. This made it seem like dogs were a better social partner for man. This new study rethinks that concept.

It’s now believed that wolves most likely already had the social skills. It really came down to a matter of losing their fear early man. Once the fear issue was eliminated, dogs became the obvious choice to aid in the survival early man.

The study also found another key difference between dogs and wolves. With a wolf pack, the higher ranking wolves seem to allow the lower ranking a bit more leeway when it comes to matters of hunting for food and territory.

Range said, “This means that in the wolves, the higher-ranking partners were more tolerant of the lower-ranking ones. In the dogs, the lower-ranking ones did not dare to challenge the higher-ranking partners.”

The pack mentality with wolves compared to dogs is also a completely different dynamic. When you have a “dog pack,” you’ll have multiple males and females, and they are commonly not blood relatives.

With wolves it’s very different. There’s usually an alpha male and female with dogs. They are together with their offspring for a longer period. This makes for more of a family like atmosphere with wolves.

It would seem that for every similarity there is between wolves and dogs, there are an almost an equal number of differences. But no matter what , dogs really do make awesome pets and social partners. dogs are called “man’s best friend” for a for a lot of very good reasons.
