Don't Tell Me Your Dog Is Smart, Can Your Dog Do This?

To answer the question, I don't know, I never gave my dog a paintbrush. I did have a dog that was not afraid to climb trees and often went high up into live oak trees in Florida, chasing squirrels. He never fell out which amazed me. He was a border collie mix.
Elephants are know for being very smart and the fact this one paints is a wonderous thing to see. We often hear about creatures doing things that are not normal in their natural state, but they become quite adapted to doing tricks in captivity.
