Shout out to Meadow and her mom for being the first participants in ManyDogs2 held at the Arizona Canine Cognition Center! ManyDogs2 is a study from the where dog labs across the world test dogs on the same cognitive task. This time, itā€™s on ā€œover-imitationā€, where we see if dogs copy a non-necessary task (pushing fake buttons on the wall) to retrieve a hidden treat after watching a human do the same thing. Stay tuned for more ManyDogs2 participants over the next couple of weeks!
