Have you ever wondered what goes on in a dog’s head? In this program, Alexandra Horowitz, a cognitive scientist at Barnard College and author of the new book Inside of a Dog: What Dogs See, Smell, and Know, will discuss what’s on dogs’ minds and will lead live, interactive demonstrations.
Please note: This family-friendly program lasts for one hour in an auditorium setting. A presentation and a look at live animals are included.
