I work with horses and we take it for granted that when we drop something like food on the floor our dogs will automatically look down and find the food. Not so with horses. They never look down for the food that's been dropped. Once it's out of their eyesight they no longer look for it. Dogs are so incredibly intuitive it constantly amazes me. Horses don't show the same intuitiveness. I dearly love my horses but they can't begin to have the same beautiful qualities as dogs. Dogs have been taken for granted for far too long.
