Of course it won't help border collies that the headline calls her the "world's smartest dog." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCStarkey Posted July 30, 2019 Report Share Posted July 30, 2019 When John Pilley had died last year, I wondered how Chaser dealt with his passing, as they were such a huge part of each other's lives. Now, Chaser has passed and will again be with the person she treasured most. God Speed, old girl. You and John are together again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevTheDog Posted July 31, 2019 Report Share Posted July 31, 2019 When I saw this headline the other day, I told my ma and we took a walk in Chaser's honor. 15 years is a long life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Parkey Posted July 31, 2019 Report Share Posted July 31, 2019 Chaser and John Pilley helped to start a boom of new research into dog behavior, and by extension, animal behavior in general. This has refuted the reductionist approach that was dominant for so long. We hope it can improve the lives of animals everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
