Scientists have discovered that dogs are getting dumber. Back in the old days, dogs were prized for their strength and skills. They needed to guard sheep, fetch and hunt to provide food for their masters. Today, dogs are now prized for being docile, pretty pets that stay indoors. This has supposedly caused us to be less responsive and not very alert. There is a good chance that breeding for appearance has led to a decline in intelligence. Instead of a keen sense of smell or the quickest reaction time, people now want the silkiest coat or a dog that fits into a purse as a fashion accessory. Dr. Svartberg tested 31 different breeds. One of his findings is particularly disturbing. He says that attractive appearances were often linked to a boring personality! Come on now Doctor, I have an amazing personality, a silky coat, I'm super smart and extremely responsive to the slightest noise. I'm docile, pretty and can fit in a purse too. Take your study, shred it, and use it as lining for the cat litter box.
