Tim BayerBRIGHTON New York—(Weekly Hubris)—5/6/2013—Last week in this space, we learned a little about Men’s Brains vs Women’s Brains. This week, we get some insight into one particularly gifted dog’s brain and, incidentally, that of its dance companion.

I have lived with a dog and, on occasion, taken care of any number of dogs for out-of-town neighbors and friends. I love being around dogs and have an appreciation for the time and effort it takes for a dog truly to train its human companion.

Most dogs are drilled in simple tricks such as sitting, “speaking,” shaking paws or fetching. On the other end of that spectrum is the impressive display of higher learning—both human and canine—preserved on this video (sent in by Weekly Hubris reader Jean Nolan).

If you, yourselves, come across an entertaining link or video, I’d be interested in seeing it, and sharing it with my readers at Weekly Hubris. Please contact me at: Email: [email protected].)

Tim Bayer, Webmaster, and Assistant Editor of Weekly Hubris, was born and brought up in Webster, New York. He attended St. Bonaventure University, earning a BS in Computer Science, and then worked in the hi-tech world. In 2002 he turned his creative energies to product development and video production with the release of his first independently produced products. When the demand for web site design and freelance writing increased, he once again switched skill sets . . . to writing and web work. An avid or, to be more accurate, rabid, disc golfer, he may often be found chasing plastic while in pursuit of the perfect round on a disc golf course, or designing and developing disc golf products for Demogrid.com. He says he tries to find the humor hidden in everyday experiences, because, “life is too important to be taken seriously.” (Author photo by Tim Bayer. Author Head Shot Augment: René Laanen.)
