Description

In this week’s interview episode, we are joined by Dr. Jessica Hekman, a  veterinary researcher. Jessica has a fantastic skill, among many others, of taking really complex topics and distilling them into digestible tidbits of information that the average non-sciency person can understand. Currently, Jessica runs the Functional Dog Collaborative, a non-profit group, which supports the ethical breeding of healthy and behaviorally solid dogs. 

In this episode, you’re going to hear Emily and Jessica talk about:

• Undereducation overstates, especially when it comes to super complex topics like nature and nurture
• Breed-specific enrichment, and why it may not be as important as you think it is
• The nebulousness of science, and why pseudoscience is attractive
• Emily & Jessica’s thoughts about long-term solutions for decreasing animal overpopulation
