Thanks for the link!

In order to determine whether dogs’ performance at word comprehension is reflected in their button pressing, carefully controlled future studies must investigate whether dogs can spontaneously produce contextually appropriate button presses in experimentally induced situations [to] establish the extent to which AIC devices can be used for two-way interspecies communication

Now that would be interesting.
