The researchers trained 37 domestic dogs to operate a food dispenser by pressing a button, before separating the button and dispenser in separate enclosures. In the first stage, dogs were paired with two unfamiliar humans one at a time. One human partner was helpful - pressing their button to dispense food in the dog s enclosure - and one was unhelpful. The researchers also reversed the set-up, with a button in the dog s enclosure that operated a food dispenser in the human s enclosure. They found no significant differences in the dogs tendency to press the button for helpful or unhelpful human partners, and the human s behavior in the first stage did not affect the dog
