If you think dogs can't count, try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket and then giving Fido only two of them

Phil Pastoret, a renowned dog trainer and behaviorist, firmly believes that dogs are much more intelligent and capable than many people give them credit for. He often uses the example of counting to demonstrate just how smart our canine companions truly are.

The quote, "If you think dogs can't count, try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket and then giving Fido only two of them," perfectly encapsulates Pastoret's belief in the cognitive abilities of dogs. Many people assume that dogs are not capable of counting or understanding numbers, but Pastoret challenges this notion by showing that dogs can indeed recognize when they are not receiving the full amount of treats they were promised.
