2. When we tested German Shepherds' ability to learn human voice commands, we discovered that they have a remarkable ability to understand. Similar results were discovered in Border collies and Dobermans. However, when we tested other animals closely related to dogs, such as the wolf and coyote, they exhibited little ability to understand human voice commands. We think this is caused by a split in the evolutionary heritage of dogs, after they separated from wolves.

6. Robert believes Larry the milkman caused his wife's pregnancy. As his son grew up, he noticed he didn't look anything like him. So, Robert had a paternity test done and discovered he was not the child's biological father. Thinking it is possible the child was accidently switched at birth, he had a paternity test done with his wife's DNA and discovered she is the child's natural mother. He asked his sister-in-law how this could be, and she said his wife used to spend a lot of time with the milkman, and the baby looks just like him. Robert concluded that Larry the milkman was his son's biological father.
