This is obviously wrong to anyone who has observed dogs. Some breeds are much more vocal. My boxer would only bark to communicate (she’d bark once to be let in.

This is obviously wrong to anyone who has observed dogs. Some breeds are much more vocal. My boxer would only bark to communicate (she’d bark once to be let in. Only ever twice if she didn’t hear you getting up). I’ve never seen anyone else’s boxer bark. Some breeds are hugely vocal. Hounds for example because sounding is beneficial for hunting. We literally breed dogs for certain behaviors. You can see a sheep dog’s instinctive herding behavior. You can watch a bird dog breed point having never seen the behavior before. Goldens are absurd key attention seeking. Chows very territorial. You can literally see these things with your own eyes. Science means looking at the evidence. The evidence is all around us. Sometimes science shows us bias and misconception. This time I beg to differ.
