Now that my wife and I own a dog, we are amazed at how smart he is.

Yes, we’re proud of little Toby, our 9-month-old Chihuahua mix mutt. He’s pretty sharp. He’s learning a few commands as we go along and we’re quite pleased at how little maintenance is required to keep him happy.

Then my sister sent me this video.

The pooch featured in this little 2-minute segment is damn near human.

I won’t blather on and on about this version of Man’s Best Friend.

Watch it and be astonished — as I am.
