Dogs are smarter than cats, study finds - BS

[JSN]

What matters is that dogs can actually be useful unlike cats.

It has been proven time and time again over hundreds of years. Dogs are used by police and other law enforcement agencies to catch criminals, find drugs, weapons (guns, bombs), etc. There's service dogs meant for 'emotional support' that have saved lives and probably do almost every day around the world.

They can be taught to protect your house and family from intruders. Dogs can be trained to have legitimate professions and all that. Some cats are cool, but the majority of them f'n suck. Most of them are lame and boring, whereas most dogs have a great personality and are always happy to see you and hangout with you.

So not only are dogs useful for saving lives and actually doing jobs, they're also great for companionship. There's very smart cats out there that are actually great pets and trained to do things to help out, but like I said, most cats just suck. I'm not saying all dogs are great either, but overall they're better pets, friends, etc.

So whether cats are more intelligent or not (they aren't, they're lazy and boring), dogs are more useful. It doesn't matter if the cat is more intelligent or not because they usually just lay around and do nothing all day for the most part, just like the big cats in the wild. They're dirty little fuckers too. Stinky bastards.

I'd rather have a dog that wants to chill instead of a cat that's like: "feed me and leave me alone or else I'll claw your fucking face off". The only time a cat is really useful is for catching rodents that somehow get into the house. Cats will take out the rodents, dogs will take out intruders. Or they'll take out the trash. They'll grab you a beer from the fridge. Dogs can be trained to do just about anything. Cats can fook aff.

honestly 95% cats are more useful because a large percent are extremely efficient vermin hunters.

Dogs definitely have more uses though. But most people’s dogs are neither trained nor bred for any use though

Dogs know what it means when humans point at something.

Not even chimps know what that means.

[Bald1]

This.

They're also per capita some of the best hunters in the world. No lie, the common housecat is considered top ten for hunt success rates.

Responsible for the 2nd most extinctions after humans. They're pretty bad ass.

I'd rather know the difference in intelligence between dogs, octopus, pigs and crow...

If someone breaks into your house and tries to murder you any decent dog will instinctively protect it's owner to the death. A cat will not even stop licking their own ass to look up. They probably won't notice you are dead til they start to starve when their food dish goes empty.

There are so many stories out there of dogs saving drowning victims, people in fires, victims of violent crimes, children in danger, people in war. They understand their symbiotic relationship with humans and will die for the person who feeds and takes care of them because they are far more socially intelligent.

They have evolved and continue to evolve as a partner to humanity. Humans are by far the smartest animal and the dogs willingness to please a human through their behavior has emparted a level of intelligence far greater than that of an apathetic cat. Dogs can be taught to perform countless functions. Cats can't be taught shit.

Dogs>Cats and the only grown men who think different are weirdo loner virgins. Explains all the support they are getting here.

That doesnt make dogs smarter, we just breed them to be our bitches, pretty beta.

A Chimp is way smarter than any dog and he will try to bite his caretaker face off.

I bet a dog would run around in circles and look up at its owner for food.

@Cint

Theyre too busy protecting their goddamn owners from criminals instead of begging for food

Also:

When was the last time you saw a seeing eye cat? You cant even get a cat to fucking sit.

Dog: "Sorry, a little busy being taught how to literally jump in water (that freaks cats the fuck out) and save people from drowning"

Well, I like having both cats and dogs myself. I love all of them. Take that, dumbasses ITT who apparently can't understand liking or seeing the benefits of both animals.

 

[MadSquabbles500]

Who is paying these people to find out if dogs are smarter than cats and vice versa?

They really ought to pit other animals against each other. There are more interesting matchups than cats and dogs.

Yeah, you're the only guy here who gets any pussy because you like dogs.

Wait... That makes no fucking sense whatsoever. Well, would you look at that?

 

[blaseblah]

Dogs save lives in many different roles, from bomb-sniffing dogs to blood-sugar and seizure-sensing dogs to seeing eye dogs and on and on and on.

Your dog can't do any of that though.

 

[FacePunch]

Your dog can't do any of that though.

Lol - He can eat your fucking cat.

Attacking other pets is a negative trait to have, you goof.

Also I've hunted with Dogs ( Boar and Deer) can't do that with a stupid fucking cat.

 

[Desdinova]

Cats domesticated themselves.

They play dumb so they can lay around all day and get free food and lodging.

I see reading comprehension is difficult for you tonight.

He wouldn't do it unless I told him to, but he could do it whenever he felt like it if he was a wild fucker. In reality there are 3 dogs, two of them are 6 months old and 75+ lbs, they're all around cats every day. They all get along fine. My favorite cat is Mr. Sniffles. He's the man.

What kind of sick fuck has his dog trained to attack on command? This keeps getting worse.

I've had both dogs and cats. Cats are way more chill. They sleep for the majority of the day. Dogs are far more active and require you to take them on walks and play with them throughout the day so they don't get temperamental.

The two cats I have right now love people. If there's a human in another room they will seek them out. When they want to relax they will find a person to curl up next to or on. I trained them to fetch by accident.

Lol your dog doesn't take out the trash or get you a beer. Now you're just making things up. I bet all it does is bark at people who approach the house and annoy the neighbors.
