Dogs are extremely adept at _____ human body language.

• A. Ignoring
• B. Mirroring
• C. Analyzing
• D. Reading

Answer: (D)

Reading human body language is what dogs are exceptionally adept at. They are highly attuned to cues like posture, gestures, and facial expressions and adjust their responses based on what they perceive. This best captures their ability to understand and respond to human signals in real time. Ignoring would mean missing cues; mirroring suggests simply copying movements, which isn’t the usual way dogs respond; analyzing implies deliberate conscious reasoning, which isn’t necessary to describe how dogs process human signals.
