Studies show dogs have sense of fairness
I love this article, written by the Associated Press and seen by me in SFGate.com, the online San Francisco Chronicle, because I see this in action every day. If I call all the dogs in to me, (e.g., when a jogger or bicyclist goes by,) and I give treats to some of the dogs for coming and sitting in front of me, but not to all of them, the other ones seem to me to notice the others got treats and so they should be getting treats, too. I really believe the studies’ conclusions are spot on. Read about it here:
