Cognitive Science for Dogs!

There is a new program available that helps owners dicover how their dog thinks.  I am exploring it now and would be interested in knowing if this is something that interests you.

The program includes a series of games you play with your dog to determine which cognitive strategies your dog uses.  So far, the games have been interesting although I'm not sure Winter agrees!

Here is an article on the topic and the companies web site.  Let me know what you think!
