Our favorite cognitive behavior researcher Dr. Ellen Furlong returns to discuss dogs and abstract thinking.
Learn more about Dr. Furlong and her work at EllenFurlong.com.
Futurity.org features the latest discoveries by scientists at top research universities in the US, UK, Canada, Europe, Asia, and Australia. In Dogs Can “Think Back” and Form Abstract Concepts the researchers looked at dogs’ memories of their own recently performed actions to determine if they could voluntarily think back to what they had just been doing and reproduce those actions.

Another wonderful way to support Rosie Fund and create beautiful artwork of a beloved pet is to book a session with Claire Shelley at BLegendaryPhotographyCreations.com. For every referral from Rosie Fund, Claire will donate $100 or 10% of the order total, whichever is greater. This does not apply to designated fundraising campaigns like the Pooch Playoffs that already support charities or to the gift vouchers that Claire donates to the Rosie Life Starter Kits.
