Dogs might actually understand when we're happy and when we're sad.

Research done in Hungary found dogs can actually hear emotion in our voices, the way humans do.

Scientists conducted the first ever comparison between the brains of humans and the brains of dogs while exposing them to the same sounds - such as crying, whining and laughter.

The study found that the same areas in the brain that showed activity in humans also showed activity in dogs.
