When playing various speech patterns from either side of dogs everything from sine waves and whistles through to robotic vocalizations and actual verbal speech , the researchers tracked the

Indeed, results showed certain tendencies in their response to particular aspects of human speech. Familiar spoken commands showed a left-hemisphere processing bias, while intonation and speaker-related vocal cues showed a right-hemisphere bias.
