PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- A new study is coming out that adds fuel to the debate over which is smarter, cats or dogs.

A team at Vanderbilt University studied the brains of both.

According to a professor who worked on the study, the findings show dogs are more biologically capable of doing more complex things.
