061 Canine Cognitive Skills - with Kay Attwood

Episode 61 – Canine Cognitive Skills - with Kay Attwood

I absolutely loved recording this episode with Kay!

Cognition and Cognitive Skills are so important when it comes to behavioural health, and I often use cognitive exercises as part of my treatment plans in order to teach coping skills as well as help dogs process better by accessing brain areas associated with cognition rather than brain areas associated with emotional reactivity or "fight or flight" states.

In this episode, Kay introduces us to her brand-new book "Canine Cognitive Skills" in which she teaches us about her "brain games" and how to use them for our own dogs and our patients!

This is a book for doggies of all ages, pet owners and pet care professionals alike and should be on your bookshelf if you want to learn more about canine cognition!
