Average times for men and women are:
Women - 12.46 minutes

Typical comments by women taking the test:
1. "I couldn't see a dog and I stared at the picture for a good 10 minutes."
2. "I think it's one of those pictures where you have to stare at a certain spot and then everything comes into focus ... but it never happened to me.
3. "I'll give it another try later."
4. "I almost didn't find the dogs at all!"
5. "There is a dog in this picture? Where?"
6. "This must be a joke; there are no dogs in this picture!"
