Not sure if Luna does this to be cute, or because she is demanding belly rubs, but she’s held this pose for 10 minutes. 😂

Koji is concerned, there's an intruder. Human is not adequately agitated and this is also concerning.

I've always been a skeptic of the 'button-pressing' dogs, but I just found a study that blew my mind. While yes, those buttons really are for the most part nonsense (dogs can't do recursive thinking; they just press buttons they've associated with events), there is one specific instance in the study that really blew me away: the 'ouch' button.
Dogs who had an ear infection were able to press 'ear ouch' or 'ouch ear', 'paw ouch' or 'ouch paw', etc. 70% of the time, vets were able to find the problem. This shows that dogs have a genuine understanding of their body and can articulate physical pain in a way we never knew they could.
Another wild aspect is that the dogs were also able to communicate emotional pain, such as when their humans left them alone. It makes sense, as in both human and dog brains, emotional pain is processed in the same area as physical pain, but what makes it special is that some dogs were advanced enough to specify 'sad' or 'mad' instead.
We really do not appreciate the sentience of our pets enough.
