Dive into the fascinating insights from her research at the Horowitz Dog Cognition Lab and discover why dogs might not be smiling when we think they are. Through personal anecdotes and scientific observations, we explore the rich emotional lives of dogs and how our relationships with them reflect our own personalities and behaviors.We promise a fresh perspective on human-animal relationships, particularly the unique bond we share with our furry friends. From the joy and playfulness that dogs bring to our lives to the complex emotions involved in the loss of a pet, this episode covers it all. We chat about the intriguing notion that people often choose dogs that mirror their own traits, and the ongoing debate on whether dogs are a subspecies of wolves or a distinct species entirely. Our discussion also touches on Dr. Horowitz's exploration of the olfactory world of dogs, as detailed in her book "Being a Dog."Listeners will be captivated by the philosophical considerations of cloning pets and the unmatched uniqueness each new animal brings into our lives. We share touching stories that highlight dogs' resilience and the deep gratitude they exhibit, especially those mixed-breed "res dogs" from the Navajo reservation. This episode will leave you with a profound appreciation for dogs and the valuable insights they provide into our own lives, encouraging a more thoughtful approach to understanding these remarkable companions.To work with me one on one or inquire more head over to www.nicobarraza.comTo learn more about Dr. Horotwiz's work head to her website and purchase her books here https://alexandrahorowitz.net/Support the showWarmly,Nico Barraza@FeedTheSoulNBwww.nicobarraza.com
Alexandra Horowitz is a cognitive scientist who teaches courses like canine cognition and animal behavior at Barnard College in New York. She's also an acclaimed author, and a sampling of her books include The Year of the Dog, Our Dogs Ourselves, The Year of the Puppy, and Inside of a dog. Suffice it to say that Alexandra knows quite a bit about dogs, and she's an expert at sharing her knowledge. That's why we are so excited to have her on the podcast this week.In our conversation we travel wide ground, and discuss things like how barking is unique to dogs, why it's a mistake to say that one dog breed is friendlier than another, how dogs have been selected to seek our attention, and the extreme subtlety of inter-dog communication. We end on a discussion of what walking with other people and listening to them observe teaches you about how to observe. Regardless of whether you have a dog, are a dog observer, or just a generally curious person, Alexandra Horowitz has a great deal to share.

Your Dog Prefers The New HDTV. When you purchased that new high-def TV, you were probably thinking how crisp the picture appears to you. Did you know that your dog couldn't see what we saw with your old TV? It just looked like the horizontal hold needed to be adjusted because all your dog saw were lines going up and down. Today's new Digital Television delivers the signal differently, and yes your dog can see the same picture you see, but probably not the same colors. Red is still white to the canine eye. That Slobbery Kiss Doesn't Necessarily Mean Fido Loves You Perhaps because human beings form such strong bonds with dogs, we tend to assign human-biased traits to their behavior. The technical word is Anthropomorphism. We project our own feelings onto our furry-family members. And more often than not, we're wrong. That slobbery kiss beckons back to early wolf behavior and the regurgitation of food. While it is a positive behavior, it has nothing to do with kissing. Christo's Son Following in Father's Footsteps Environmental Artist Christo's son, Cyril, has created a stunning photo book of elephants. His message is poignant. Elephant populations are declining because of illegal poaching and the destruction of our environment. Cyril and his wife Marie describe their journey and mission. Cyril guests this week on Animal Radio® Do Dogs Feel Guilt? We may think those puppy eyes are expressing remorse or even guilt for something your dog did wrong. Truth is that canines don't feel guilt, and this look was developed to appease you according to Alexandria Horowitz. The psychology professor tops the best-selling book list with Inside Of A Dog, and she's Animal Radio's special guest this week. What's Bloat? Why is it so common? Many breeds are predisposed to stomach bloat. This can actually be fatal if the stomach flips upside down. A surgical procedure can almost alleviate bloat. A blind listener is selecting a service dog and needs help deciding if bloat will be an issue. H1N1 Sicken Cat and Ferrets The Swine Flu Virus has touched our four-legged family members. Reports of cats and ferrets contracting the H1N1 virus have put us on full-alert. Dr. Julie Levy has the truths and myths about how the virus can affect our animals. Levy says if we get the flu, we shouldn't spend time close to our pets. While dogs don't seem to fall victim to this brand of flu (they have their own dog flu), felines and other domestic pets are at risk! Animal Radio® has complete coverage of this important news event. Dogs Allowed - No Kids A German eatery has opened touting the dog-friendly policy. May not seem different, but the owner has decided not to allow kids or children. He says they're noisier and dirtier than the four-legged clientele. So far, not too many complaints about the policy. Is this something we should try in America? More
