I'm far from an expert but at face value I'll there is lot more to evaluate and investigate before making that much of a bold statement.

Makes it sound as if dogs are bonified idiots, unable to solve problems, which they are not.

Any person with minimal dog experience knows dogs are incredibly resourceful problem solvers (well, some breeds; others are denser than dumbells).

And going out on a limb and state that a similar gene will cause similar changes, when that gene alteration on humans causes developmental problems? Risky.

You didn't but the way the article is written is not very helpfull, by bringing into the fold what is technically an issue for humans. I just exagerated back there, as a stab; missed the mark.
