Baby vs. Dog

We heard somewhere that a dog has the average intelligence of a 2 year old child.  I think we made my sister and brother-in-law mad when we would tell them that our dog was smarter than their baby.  Now we get to run a side by side comparison of our own.
  • Comes when called: Dog
  • Reacts to simple commands: Dog 
  • Knows how to walk: Dog
  • Can go down stairs alone: Dog
  • Can be left alone in the house: Dog
  • Sleeps through the night: Dog
  • Recognizes self in mirror: Neither
  • Knows place in social pack: Dog
  • Eats without making a mess: Dog
  • Potty trained: Dog
  • Object Permanence Stage: Baby, 4; Dog, 5
  • Eats off the floor: Both
  • Knows which toys are hers: Dog
Looks like Casey is currently winning in every aspect.  Check back later for the rematch!
