      Dogs are known to be a person's best friend but it looks like they are judgemental too. We are not saying this but a study is suggesting so.

      As per the findings of researchers at Kyoto University, Japan, it was found that dogs specifically judge the competence of humans. In the study, 74 pet dogs took part, out of which 43 were females and 31 were males.

      In the experiments, there were groups of humans who had to open a transparent container and in this, one person had to open the lid, which would make them competent and the other would not be able to open it, making that person incompetent.

      This experiment would then be repeated with different containers and it was observed that when the containers had food in them, the dogs were looking at the competent person for longer than the incompetent person.

      It was also found that female dogs looked slightly longer than males at the competent person to open the lid of the container that had food in it.

      Well, next time you see a dog giving you a look, you know some judgements are being passed.
