Understanding Canine Play



New Webinar presented by Dr. Shelly Volsche

Can you hear that? Are you listening? The Science Dog’s newest webinar examines the basics of animal bioacoustics, with a focus on the domestic dog. Dr. Volsche, who teaches canine behavior and training at the University of WI at River Falls, reviews past and recent research regarding play signals and the sounds that our dogs make during play. She focuses on a highly unique canine vocalization that she and her team are currently studying – the play-pant. Dr. Volsche discusses how dog owners and pet professionals might uncover the untapped potential of this nonverbal communication for use during play, when training and to enhance our dogs’ welfare.
