Revealing Animals’ Intelligence

Saturday, March 16, 2024

We all know that dogs and cats are intelligent, but how intelligent - and how do they, and other animals, measure up to humans?
Write your awesome label here.
The webinar is suitable for pet owners, veterinary professionals, animal trainers, animal behaviorists, pet guardians, shelter and rescue staff and volunteers, and anyone with an interest in evidence-based behavior and training.

In this Webinar: 

We will take a deep dive into how animals’ brains are uniquely adapted to their environments, and what that means for us as humans that live and work with them. How much of animal intelligence is genetic, and how much can experience influence social, emotional and cognitive development? How can we provide support for animals’ cognitive development? And what brain changes happen as a result of meeting animals’ cognitive needs?
