Now you can test your dog to see how smart he is

The Genius of Dogs: How Dogs Are Smarter than You Think - Brian Hare, Vanessa Woods

By the author of Genius of Dogs: there is a website, called Dognition.com. You can test your dog to evaluate how smart he is.  Not only that, but by sending the results to Dognition, you will be contributing to the next stage of dog cognition research.

 

Brian Hare is an associate professor in the Department of Evolutionary Anthropology for Cognitive Neuroscience at Duke University.

 

"Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods, together with other world-leading experts in dog cognition, have developed a ground breaking canine assessment tool. . . It is a new service you can join . . . To begin developing an even more enriching relationship with your dog.  Dognition is also a "citizen science" project that will provide researchers with the broad-based data they need to better understand -- and help -- all dogs."
