Re: which is smarter

Millie is getting old. Buck, whom we thought was as dumb as a box of rocks is quickly becoming Millie's caretaker.

Friday when Mike came home, both dogs were off roaming somewhere. Buck heard the car and came home, knowing it was dinnertime cause his master was here.

Millie didn't come with him. We called her and waited for about 5 minutes and still no Millie. (her hearing is going) Finally, Mike told Buck to go find Millie and he shot out the door. About 3 minutes go by, and here he comes, with Millie right behind him. He was smart enough to know he wasn't going to get fed unless she was here too.

He also won't let us close the front door until she's come inside too. He won't leave her out there by herself.

Uh Gooose, who is smarter, the cat who can hunt for their own food, or the dog who will find his way out of the wilderness and locate another human family to feed them just be being adorable and looking helpless?
