Well, the fact that they've been bred for gundogs for so long has a lot to do with it -- they are bred to work closely with humans, and to follow directions in the field, so they watch you all the time to see when you're going to send them out to do a job.

"Oh, boy! A job! I love a job! Oh, boy! Let's go! Oh, boy!"
