A new computer program developed by Hungarian scientists will help to distinguish the emotional reaction of 14 dogs of the Hungarian Mudi breed. However scientists admitted the technology only just out-performs humans. While the computer correctly recognised the emotional state of 43% of dogs, humans did almost as well with 40%.

The scientist also believes the software can be improved and that later versions of the software could help owners and dog trainers identify more about dogs' well-being.
