Amazing. There is scientific proof that border collies among all dogs enjoy the process of learning as itself?
They don't need special treats for performing tasks, only verbal praise for the job correctly done.

I could not find the paper that the guy's citing, instead I found one in which it is proven these dogs can comprehend that human words mean certain object names.

In the same time, they get bored very quickly. It's like having a smart toddler with ADHD, apparently :)
