Hello Steem Worldwide Friends,

The dog is the animal species that they have studied the most in the world of science because, the canine nature since past centuries has aroused a lot of interest due to the closeness they have with the human being and the multiple activities that are related between, the dog and a person.

In view of this, canine abilities are constantly analyzed and studied by scientists since, they handle the theory that the dog is the only species that resembles humans and, not monkeys, as evolutionary theory has implied.

The relationship that exists between the human being and the dog, actually keeps a history that began more than thirty thousand years ago. More accurately, scientific history explains that this began when wolves were the animal species that accompanied the human being during the hunting activities they did, a practice that today is maintained by limiting that the dog is descended from the wolf.

The first animal species that helps people when they have a disability, is the dog and for this complement, various actions are also added in which, these canines are always lending their help. To mention one of them, we highlight the security that dogs provide when they are part of the police or, they are agents of rural auxiliary. They always accompany the human being and are the support in the activity that he is doing.

According to the above, there is no doubt that there is a clear relationship and connection in various areas or activities in which canines are a primordial animal species for the development of human life. In the current era, a canine becomes a fundamental and indispensable member in the formation of the family. Most of the time, humans create generational legacies with dogs and, at all times, extend the experience that comes with sharing with a dog.

In the last two decades we have seen the progress that has been developed with respect to the rights of the animal for this reason, the multispecies family is something that daily takes root more and for this, the human being makes the decision to equip the dogs to protect them from animal abuse and at the same time, train them in a more specialized way so that they defend themselves when they are attacked.

Because of all this, scientists published research where they showed that the dog has an aptitude that had not been highlighted and, humans would love to have. Now, because of this new canine peculiarity, specialists believe that, in the future we will see many dogs be part of the police and judicial intelligence body since, a dog easily identifies human emotions and at the same time, detects the intention they have.

This study revealed that, dogs can detect if people are lying. It is essential to note that a canine can make this type of identification due to the cognitive capacity it has. This means that the cognition of a dog is guided by natural instincts where caution, intuition and certainty are patterns that empower a canine to reveal what are the intentions that the human being has.

In order to prove that a dog can detect lying, scientists ran very simple tests. They had 10 people for them to offer the canines some containers with food and others, they were empty. Through gestures and looks, the dogs were able to detect who was actually giving them the containers with food.

With the intention of knowing widely the functioning of the brain, the dogs had some detectors in their heads and while they were doing the respective analysis of the lie, the scientists evaluated the functioning of their neurons noting that, this study also revealed that dogs are one of the 5 most intelligent animal species in the world.
