The Truth About Cats & Dogs: A Conversation with Animal Cognition Researchers
Have you ever wondered if your cat really loves you? Why your dog sometimes makes good choices (coexisting with cats) or bad choices (jumping on visitors at the door)? Or what you can do to make sure your pet is living their best life? Drs. Furlong and Singer will share some insights about what their research tells us from their work in the Transy Dog Behavior and Condition Lab and then open up for your questions.
