Love how dog with buttons = constant existential crisis and cat with buttons = scheduling the human service maid

[@thewiseturtle]

To be fair, Billi doesn't have all of these different buttons, and doesn't get to go on great adventures the way Bunny does. Though canines, in general, are very emotional, as they are dependent on their pack, and need to care about how well they fit in, while felines are more independent, and thus more practical when it comes to interacting with others.

Also do you realize how difficult it would be to have a dog learn a script for EVERY one of these videos?Thats much less believable than the idea that dogs can be taught simple words and their meanings with these buttons. Plus, if they really were using smell coded buttons, don't you think the dog would be..you know... smelling them? I'd say the pauses they take are just more evidence they really do understand these words and are carefully choosing what they want to communicate.

@ben-vh6qn dogs have a human vocabulary of about 150 to 300 words. At least the breeds typically shown engaging in these behaviors. Is it possible that they are perfectly edited and she is just recording waiting for something to happen that makes sense almost like a fortune teller or any other illusionist? Maybe. But also dogs are highly intelligent and capable of much more impressive intellectual feats than being able to express basic concepts of pain and pleasure that we know they experience from scientific research. The best you can do is say people interpret this as a higher form of speech than it really is. Even then you can tell when you have a highly intelligent dog that wants to speak with you and be a part of human life very badly. You will believe whatever you want to believe.

[@grayhatjen5924]

I love that Alexis leaves the parts where Bunny is thinking in and just speeds them up. Watching her process new words is incredibly cool to watch. Something I've been thinking about for awhile is will Bunny get to the point where she can convey something from another dog to a human, if that's even a possibility. If she were able to do that in any manner, it could seriously change the way we understand communication in general. That said, my question puts a whole bunch of carts before the horse. But the implications surrounding communication, language and inference (ex via scent) is all kinds of mind blowing.

[@bladeofSteele]

Another smart reason to leave in those gaps is so that it's harder for people to claim that it's fake, pieced together, accidental, and/or unrelated. It's a smart move!

[@jaschabull2365]

Yeah, that's pretty interesting. I seem to recall it being said that Koko couldn't really interpret for other gorillas because, not knowing how to sign, they were unintelligible to her. And I also heard it even said that there was a signing orangutan who saw himself as a person and other orangutans as animals because they couldn't sign, and thus presumably were effectively mute to him. Bunny, on the other hand, seems to have lots of experience with other dogs, and considering dogs are a domestic species, it seems that in general they probably are capable of understanding both humans and each other, so it very well might not be outside the realm of possibility that Bunny might be able to interpret for another dog. Of course that very well might depend on whether the vocabulary of words given to her have the capacity to articulate the types of intra-species communications dogs make. It's definitely a fascinating thought.

[@Nilguiri]

Interesting idea and definitely worth a try but I don't think that dogs communicate in a "verbal" (although unspoken) way. But what do I know, I'm only a human!

[@meganold443]

There is another talking dog I keep up with that the other dog wanted outside so it is possible for dogs to talk for other dogs

[@FloatingOer]

I think an experiment like that is definitely doable but might be hard to put into action. If say you have another dog over for a visit, wait until that dog needs to go outside (but set it up in a way that Bunny doesn't need to go out, walk with Bunny first before the other dog comes over that haven't been walked yet) and ignore/feign ignorance about that the dog needs to go outside. Presumably Bunny would notice that the other dog wants to go outside, so the question is would Bunny go and use her buttons to ask to go outside on the other dog's behalf?

I wonder if it is a result of developing this ability.

[@laurenanderson61]

[@lilas1024]

I took my dog back to the breeder who owned her mom once. She was more excited to see the human than her dog mom. The dogs were interested in each other, but the human breeder got the biggest reaction from my dog. It was probably within a year or two of when I took her home. Now it has been a long time, so I'm not sure if she'd still remember them (and her dog mom has passed away, sadly).

[@NiaLin]

She’s confirming many things for me. Especially the suspicion I’ve always had w/my girls (dogs) that while they may notice we don’t look the same, I’m definitely their “mom”, their relation, their family all the same. Almost as if I must just be a different version of them, or the concept they have of their self, rather than a different species altogether. I always try not to project my human emotion or concepts to their behaviors, but like Bunny demonstrates daily, sometimes they show you exactly what they’re thinking, feeling. Sometimes the message is simply too concise, too clear in meaning to chock up to coincidence or the human personification of an animal. It’s the additional expression thru human language that’s always been missing. Now that Bunny has this tool, she’s proving to the world that dogs can understand “human” concepts & ponder, even display an understanding of objective realities such as friendship, love, family, etc. She’s showing scientists the world over that dog owners who’ve claimed their pets exhibit these understandings or what we egotistically claim to be uniquely “human” emotions or cognitive reasoning of objective truths aren’t crazy.

[@alexia3552]

I love this whole talking pets phenomenon, it used to be limited to gorillas in zoos and some parrots and exotic birds.. but those aren't very common, so it's really easy to blow off any findings or place it in a separate mental category as "exceptional" animals. Dogs are so commonplace and familiar and un-exotic, that the "talking dog movement" provides a relatable and viscerally convincing group of evidence that animals have an inner world, and reason and awareness and feelings and social relationships, even a sense of humor.

[@Rygoat]

Have you ever tried getting bunny to respond to images/cards that would be used to help children recognise and understand emotions? Like can bunny recognise a happy human or a sad human based just on their facial expression in images? and/or can she recognise and communicate what emotions a human in the room is feeling? It would be amazing to think that maybe a support animal can recognise the emotions of a non-verbal child and help communicate them on the kids behalf. I know it raises a topic of whether it might stunt the child's development as they'd no longer have much need to attempt to communicate themselves. But it's still an interesting what-if.

[@beatnikmary]

Actually with dogs, they recognize human facial expressions even better than dog facial expressions! There's a whole documentary about it. Dogs have been coexisting with humans so long they have become incredibly good at reading our faces, which isn't how they actually communicate with other dogs (at least not primarily). I wish I could remember the name of the documentary, but it was AMAZING!

[@anathema2325]

O god , this is why I relate to dogs. "So you used to be a helpless furry muppet too? No? Ok, I geuss I need hugs now "

[@dreyhawk]

I love the pauses to organize thoughts. It's like she is translating it into the human words she knows. Technically the animals that learn to use these buttons are bilingual!

[@LSPGaming14]

The dog doesn’t actually know how to communicate she just knows that the buttons make different noises

[@eagillum]

I need to know how you taught her the "why?" button.

[@JacketCK]

She didn't, dogs can't understand words, they just correlate the sounds you make with an action they do to get treats, they aren't capable of coherent speech, and never will because they don't have that specific part of the brain that allows it "Why would she lie about her dog talking?" Because she's trying to sell you "button dog talking kits" for $30 a piece and is making millions off idiots that don't know any better

[@hollypaulaski8401]

I just love her! I take Bunny breaks while working and it totally brightens my day!....please keep them coming!

[@GirlMomma]

Awe Bunny! She's realized that you and her are different, wow she is brilliant!! I love you bunny and Alexis, have a happy happy Tuesday!💖🌷💜

[@Eristocrap]

imagine this same dog sitting ontop of a dresser in the middle of the night staring at you while you sleep with it pitch black eyes, it make zero movement when you wake up in the middle of the night just staring at you.

[@NathalieJoeri]

If that dog turned into a newborn baby keeping all the memories the baby would be speaking in like 38.432159106175167 sec

[@sandyconley1312]

Bunny is so sweet; reminds me of my Old English Sheepdog , Oliver whom I lost 4 years ago.He lived 11 years and was very precious to me. I hope Bunny lives a lot longer and brings you many more years of joy!

[@riannun-ya1768]

Bonnie is so adorable! How awesome it is to be able to communicate with your dog/family member! 🥰🥰

[@preach9]

Dog - communicates like human Dog - is not human Dog - is named Bunny but is a dog Mom - is human

[@martaleszkiewicz5115]

I think the "was" was perhaps not accidental. It makes sense that she would think of you as her parent and if she's the baby, then to her mind, you must be the "final" (aka adult) form.

[@OrangeReborn.]

Imagine hearing a “Mom Help”from that at 3 am bro , i’ll be scared asf

[@elile8games611]

I think Bunny wants to know if mom was ever a dog and not always a human

[@sepiae]

Mom just destroyed Bunny's hope of eventually becoming a human. Up till now Bunny has clung to the hypothetical sequence Now Learn Words - Next Learn Speech - Future Learn Drive.

[@allieren]

Bunny: Mom dog was? Billi: Mad. Mad. The differences between dogs and cats 🤣

[@RogueEgo55]

Literally gave” this mortal form is limiting” vibes😂

[@Патрашителъкурочек]

Bunny is like: "I don't give a fuck, but I'm gonna press this button"

[@riannun-ya1768]

Bunny is so adorable! How awesome it is to be able to communicate with your dog/family member! 🥰🥰

[@judisutherland8051]

Bunny just asked if you used to be a dog. She wants to know if she will be a human when she grows up.

[@mortalmagic005]

Bunny accidentally saying "Thanks!" On one of the buttons while coming over to get pet was adorable.

[@RuthBermudez-u9d]

Bunny is sooo precious and 🤓 cannot get enough of the her.. amazing 🤩

[@bearwitty9690]

Dog: "I AM VERY LONELY. NEED DOG FRIEND." Owner: "That's crazy, wanna watch TV?"

[@julesoyler4306]

Just starting my day so this is a nice way to do it! Good morning Bunny!

[@tinyhouseranch]

Almost everything she says makes me cry. I look at my dog knowing he KNOWS things has questions but no buttons. Bunny I love And Cherish you for you help the world see thru your beautiful eyes.

[@user-or1ye3iz6d]

My heart absolutely MELTS from her ❤️❤️

She’s copping with the realization of mom = human

[@bladeofSteele]

Ugh, my heart!! 😭😭😭 I was expecting this video, but it still hit me.

[@anniegeturgun3564]

Wow, she's still figuring Human out!! "Hi We" and And "Friend Come Settle" is understanding and acceptance! "I GET IT, LETS BE US TOGETHER!" Almost made me cry!! SHE IS OMG AMAZING!! Animal communication has always been my favorite subject and You and Bunny are my FAVORITE page!! I LOVE IT!!

[@awsomepersonism]

The more I watch these videos the more I realize the dog only understands concrete concepts like food and outside. All the other ones it randomly presses then waits for rewards

[@ronnievinsmoke]

Yeah I was thinking the same thing for this video. Sometimes it's a little harder for me to tell though and I want to have hope that it's not all random to her lol

[@Omar-tk1iu]

In a later video bunny has an existential crisis because of those buttons I think it understands what they mean😅😅

[@ragecl4120]

He definitely clicked some of those on accident too

[@Stella.22g]

She has asked things before and told her owner about things outside, she's one really smart dog

[@earlynoob5538]

Yeah the dog knows the basics and clicks accidentally on the more harder concepts

[@Jacksonreichart]

This is genuinely insane, it’s almost scary how much of a genius this dog is

[@cenghu9251]

Is it just me or i think doggo is pressing random words and people are trying to make sense of it.

[@pieofdeath4789]

Aggreed

[@YourDaniels]

That is correct

[@eonsinfinity534]

Incorrect. False. Maybe do some thinking and research before opening your opinion holes on the internet.

[@annahasket7247]

@@eonsinfinity534wow, that was unnecessarily aggressive, might wanna check your anger issues And research would do no good, because OP was talking about this specific dog. I agree it seems like it is pressing buttons at random, unlike some other dogs, which actually do it with purpose

[@Five7300S]

@@eonsinfinity534 Actually, dogs really can't understand our language too well. Especially put together what they want. They respond to words based off Tone, Length, and Context. Words mean nothing to them. I'd love to believe dogs can understand what they're pressing. Unfortunately, they do not.

[@kristinwolf1165]

I wonder if they have brought in another dog and Bunny has tried to use her buttons to talk to him/her. That would be cool to see. Just if she would see if she talks to humans that way, could she do it with other dogs?

[@stardolphin783]

Intresting, this has a lot of value on exemplifying the case that species identity is social✨

[@laurenanderson61]

This. Exactly.

[@stardolphin783]

Hopefully this even examine probabilities of having a different species identity due to social grouping maybe :)

[@joshlindgren9072]

I don't think the dog understands the words. She just knows she gets rewarded for pressing the buttons.

[@johnjimbob6173]

Yeah it's scary the amount of people who believe that this dog is actually communicating. People are... really gullible.

[@Burt.Macklin]

That woman is insane

[@eliyazzolinogilbert5560]

Yep, that is the truth. Amazing how many people believe they can talk to animals with these buttons.

[@Cheesling]

Yeah. It’s just for fun I believe, the dog definitely has no idea what the words mean

[@geminightur]

they can, An adult dog has the same brain capacity as a 2-year-old child.

[@nonscents1762]

This dog is literally just pressing buttons and is so unaware.

[@Chicotazo69]

That dog does not know what the hell is going on with those buttons, all it understands is buttons mean attention from its favorite person

[@dw1-norskgaming923]

Do You think she might be struggling or sad, that she is not human? ❤️

[@cindymichaud7111]

Or, what if it's the opposite. What if Bunny is sad Mom is not dog? Or maybe she doesn't care as long she gets scritches, ie., love from Mom? Bunny is astounding, for her own self, but also for the doors she opens into our understanding of the animal world.

[@OliveJuice023]

I think she’s realizing she’s is different from mom and that she has a unique sense of self that is different from mom. If this is true that’s amazing! It could be the First steps of a thing called called theory of mind and its the ability to recognize your mind and the mind of someone else is different and unique. It’s being able to recognize your thoughts and put yourself in the place of someone else mind. We only have proof that elephants and chimps might be capable of this outside of humans. It’s suspected dogs may be able to but it’s really hard to rest for... unless there’s a dog you could ask!

[@2bakaphoebe]

Bunny is innocent. So innocent. It’s so lovely to experience this voice of hers

[@lore9753]

Pinocchio wants to be a real boy....he wants to be the same as his parents. IMO, so does Bunny. Not sure if she wants Mom to be a dog as she said, or Bunny to be human, but she recognizes the difference and wants to bridge that divide. I think she wants to be the same, to truly belong, but the best option available is to snuggle close together on the couch.
