Scientists found that dogs can be sneaky and manipulative in order to get what they want from humans.
Anyone who owns a German Shorthair Pointer already knows this!
Cocker Spaniels as well. Mine will run into the family room and hide her treat, then come back to me acting as if I never gave her one in the first place. Sneaky little sprites, they are!
My dog now wolfs down the goose poop she finds if i'm not watching. I used to be able to yell at her and get her to drop it. Now it's gone in an instant. No way to get her to not eat it except eternal vigilance and a short leash on grass where the geese hang out.
My GSP will be 14 this year. She’s a crafty old gal. :) Her prime weapon is an insidious near-ultrasonic LASER like device that she can annoyingly shoot directly at your ears.
She knows that nobody likes a whiner, and she wields the weapon sparingly... but nonetheless she does wield it when her evening cookie is running late.
Far smarter than cats and, as an added bonus, if you die they are far less likely than cats to eat your liver.

Anyone who has spent much time around dogs knows this. Dogs also have personalities. Some dogs are more sneaky than others.
When it comes to food (especially left over steak), my dachshund does not manipulate-he orders. He is so cute we can’t help but follow.
As well as any man who has been married to a woman from Mexico. ;-)
I adopted one a year ago, and learned this in short order.
