Description

How does aging impact a dog’s cognitive abilities, and what can it teach us about canine intelligence overall? In this webinar, we’ll explore research examining how dogs’ problem-solving, memory, and learning evolve with age, while also considering what these changes reveal about the broader nature of canine cognition. Together, we’ll critically assess the study’s design and findings, discussing their practical relevance for dog trainers and behavior consultants. Are these insights useful in real-world settings? How can they shape your understanding of canine behavior and training strategies? Join us for a thoughtful exploration of science and its application to your work.
