- mcculley 7y agoI agree, but I was struck by how a dog and I would detect a person at the same time, hearing them walk along the dock. The dog could tell if the person should be there. I could not. Because the dog perked up at the same time as I heard the footsteps, I assumed it was the sound that the dog was using.
