One of our clients forwarded a great article from the NY Times about the contagiousness of yawning between owners and dogs. Apparently, dogs will frequently yawn when their owner does, but it is not the case if a stranger yawns. The research showed that it is similar to the way that humans "catch" yawns from each other, rather than being a canine behavioral trait. Interesting!
