The New National Geographic Magazine


Recommended Posts

A friend brought me the new issue of NG today. The lead article, "Inside Animal Minds: Birds, Apes, Dolphins, and a Dog with a World-class Vocabulary" features a classic b/w bc named Betsy. She is six years old, and knows 340 words and counting. She knows 15 people by name, and can link photos with the objects they represent. Smart girl!

So we showed her picture to Kaylee, who did seem to recogize that it was a picture of a dog. Of course, when it didn't smell like a dog, it was dismissed...

:rolleyes: See, I have been telling you guys. Sooner or later they won't need us anymore! :D

 

Maybe they could get their own jobs to buy their toys and food? :D
