Dogs are also better at reading human body language than monkeys

What about monkeys and gorillas? I thought they pointed at things.

Horses do to sometimes

Especially sight dogs, they're great at following your hand motions.

Dogs are one of the only (if not the only) species that evolved alongside humans, that's why they are more tuned into us than say, apes. Understanding humans pointing things out served no evolutionary purpose to primates. Try it with your dog, it really works!

Pretty sure falcons can interpret a finger point...

cats, elephants, and dolphins can as well actually

I call bullshit. My duck is perfectly capable of finding something after I've pointed it out to her. Much better at it than any of my dogs, actually.

That's ridiculous. Dog's don't even have index fingers.

My dog just stares at my finger then assumes we're in danger and runs to the window..

I could've sworn humans were mammals last time I checked
