Researchers used eye-tracking software to determine that dogs and babies respond in a similar manner to our commands.

Dr Topal added, “Our findings show that dogs are good at receiving human communication in a manner that was thought to only belong to babies before. By following the eye movements of dogs, we are able to get a first-hand look at how their minds are actually working.”
