Dogs purposefully deceiving the owners in order to get what you want. This was stated by German scientists.
Research conducted by the University of Zurich. The experiment involved 27 pupils of different breeds. Each of the dogs was assigned by humans. One of them gave a test food, and other prohibited to do so, writes TheThelegraph.
During the test the dog figured out exactly what the owner went to him. After that he had to bring his "caretaker" in one of three boxes - with sausage, with the purchase of food or empty. This dog could pretty quickly find and began to carry out various manipulations. "Evil" host, they brought an empty box, a lover to share a treat - a box of sausage. A few days later the dog began to lead the hosts, which allow them to have food, to the box with sausage more often.
"They have demonstrated remarkable flexibility in behavior they do not adhere to strict rules, they think about what choices they have." - Said one of the researchers.
