Business Insider spoke with John Bradshaw, anthrozoologist and author of "The Animals Among Us," about how much dogs understand when you communicate with them.
Mr Bradshaw said; "Dogs are very responsive to the way that we talk to them and it tricks many owners into thinking they literally understand every word."
"We don’t believe that these animals are actually understanding every word. What they are doing and particularly what dogs are very good at is responding to emotion through the tone of voice that we’re using and they learn to respond in very specific ways to their owners so the owners really can believe and it’s almost true that the dog is responding to every word they say."
