Online Course – Starts 4/6/23 – The Thinking Dog: Cognition and its Role in Behavior – IAABC (fee applies)

April 6, 2023

$165 – $300
IAABC The Thinking Dog Course

Have you ever wondered what’s going on in your dog’s head? This course will guide you through those intangible, invisible mental processes that influence behavior. It includes fascinating cognitive capabilities such as understanding time and concepts, reasoning, self-awareness, and consciousness. All of these abilities combine to form the mental experience of an animal, and understanding that experience is critical to understanding behavior! This is truly fascinating stuff—and it will give you a new perspective on how to change behavior and promote well-being.

In this course you will learn about:

  • Cognition in general
  • Different areas of cognition
  • How to apply and integrate these concepts into our work with any species

Throughout the course, full students will have multiple opportunities to use in-class activities to further their understanding of the material and to receive feedback regarding their progress in the course.
