The Science Behind a Happy Dog
There is an abundance of new research about how our dogs think, perceive their worlds, and relate to their human families. So much new research, that it can be overwhelming.
That's why we are hosting Emma Grigg M.A., Ph.D., and Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist for a fun and informative event about the Science behind a Happy Dog. Emma will share how the most recent research can be applied to give your dogs a healthier and happier life.
During this one hour session you will learn about:
1. How do our dogs perceive us, and their worlds...and do they really love us?
2. How can we measure our dog's quality of life, and make improvements if necessary
3. How dogs learn, and how best to train them. What we have learned from the many studies on this topic.
If you are curious about how to enhance your dog's wellbeing and give them a happy life, this session is for you! All ticket buyers will be entered into a raffle to receive a copy of Emma's book: The Science Behind a Happy Dog
