Hi! I’m Mia Hickey, an undergrad research assistant in the Arizona Canine Cognition Center at @uarizona. I’m an avid animal lover interested in animal behavioral science and hoping to pursue a career in research, so I was so excited to get to study dogs for my thesis project! 1/6

Did you know that many dogs have a paw preference? 🐾 Factors such as sex and age may affect dog pawedness 🐕 In a study of almost 18,000 dogs, older dogs tended to show a stronger right-paw preference than younger dogs 👉

Most dog lovers are familiar with a behavior colloquially termed "the zoomies". According to Dr. Stanley Coren, this behavior is most likely the result of a positive emotion in dogs. Sometimes dogs just need to get out a burst of happy energy! https://t.co/6H4eAF3jhR

#Dogs can infer the emotional state of people by accessing the information they’ve obtained from a person’s facial expression and that they’ve stored in their memory. And more, they use this information to solve problems. https://t.co/QxBHhAiPLf @nsalbuquerq (4/4)
