My puppy is entirely predictable (and you are too) — why ‘free will’ doesn’t exist and what you can do about it

I can predict with over 90% accuracy what my puppy will do at any given moment based on my knowledge of him and his past actions.

If he’s just eaten a large meal and I can’t see him, he’s probably pooping behind the sofa usually.

If he HASN’T eaten and I can’t see him, he’s found something in the trash and is now chewing on it, likely under the dining room table.
