"It had already been established that dogs respond to human voices
better than their wolf brethren, are able to match hundreds of objects
to words and learn elements of grammar, and can be directed by human
speech. But the new findings mean dogs are more like humans than was
previously known: They process language using the same regions of the
brain as people, according to the researchers, whose paper was published
in Science."
