What is Dog Spies?
We are constantly spying on dogs, trying to
figure out what makes them tick. When not
sniffing, eating or snoozing, dogs are often
spying on us! Dog Spies brings you the
science behind this mutual fascination.
Scientific inquiry into dogs has grown
exponentially since the 1950s. This research is
vast and incorporates animal behavior
(ethology), psychology, zoology, archaeology
and genetics, among other fields.

What good is this nifty dog research if it
remains stuck in dense and impenetrable
scientific journals?
And, when you ask Google a dog behavior
question, is Google feeding you sound
information or misinformation?
Get to know dogs on their terms. This approach can enrich our relationships with our four-legged friends!
I look forward to talking dogs with you! ~ Julie Hecht, MSc, Applied Ethologist
