Do you even have to ask? Thanks to our pal 'Enzo' as well as Elspeth S. from Glasgow for sending in a link to a video at the BBC where a Chinese Dachshund named 'Lazai' is apparently able to do mathematical sums in his head and bark the answer! The video wasn't embeddable from there, but we found this equally spiffy one from ITN.
So is this red smooth the smartest dog on the planet or is this just a parlor trick? For that answer, let's head back to June, 2008 and ask Toby, the Dachshund Genius.
Love the post!! My first dachshund, Fritz, could recognize the spelling of several words. Walk, treat, bone, out, car, food. I joked that we were reduced to sign language and etch-a-sketch, but he figured out the sign language, too. Doxies rule !!
