Everybody has always known that dogs are trainable. Pavlov's contribution was figuring out how to cut a hole in dog stomach and keep it alive.

This then he used in studying gastric juices, in relationship with stimuli.

Have a doggy day!

I have seen cows with holes like that in their rumen in real life. They have a little access point on the outside where you can just put your arm into their rumen from the outside and take a sample. It's both insane and also kind of cool. It's called a port hole. Used in feed science. And apparently the cow doesn't care.

I've put my hand in one of those before! It was at the like fair or a tour of a dairy place we went on for school or something but they had one of those with an integrated glove that you could reach in and feel the digesting grass n shit

I mostly just remember it being warm and weirdly mushy, I was fairly young at the time

This is very different from the last time I had my fist that deep in a digestive tract.

Holy shallow interpretation, Batman!

To reduce Pavlov's conclusions to "dogs = trainable" is the equivalent of saying that Newton's laws of motion boil down to "things move sometimes" 🤦🏻

That's completely wrong. Newton also said, "things don't move sometimes."

His contribution was using gastric windows and other operation to find that 'training' can affect non conscious things too.

with a lot of creepy animal cruelty

Did you read what I said? Somehow you managed to misinterpret it to have the opposite meaning.

I'm not sure why, but I salivated when I read this.

I think of Pavlov's house. The apartment building defended by a few soviet soldiers for two months in the Battle of Stalingrad.
