Does Your Dog Listen to You?

  • In the News

Dogs have a reputation for being human’s best friend. If you have ever had one as a pet, you know that they can be a loyal companion. Maybe even a trusted confidante?  

You may have tried training your dog to follow basic commands like “sit” and “stay.” Have you ever noticed though that some dogs are better at following their owner’s commands than others? Or that their ability to follow their owner’s commands can vary depending on the situation? For instance, they may be better following the command “sit” when at home with just their owner versus out at the busy (and noisy) dog park that they are visiting for the first time.  

Are you curious as to why that might be? If so, you may want to read an article on the topic in Discover Magazine (Phelan, 2023). If you are interested in learning even more about your furry canine companion, the electronic article also provides links to other articles related to dogs and their relationships with humans. You can access the article in the reference below.

For professional equestrians, watching the ears of their horse allows them to gauge their shifting attention. Humans still have these same muscles, and even more interesting is their relationship to our brain and how we pay attention. …

Memorizing Movements: How Tai Chi Can Improve Balance and Cognition

Tai Chi is not just for increasing balance; it may also help improve cognitive performance. In a recent randomized controlled trial, study participants who practiced a form of Tai Chi twice a week for six months improved their scores on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) when compared to a control group (Fuzhong et al, 2023)….
