TRANSFORM your knowledge
about DOGS with SCIENCE.

# DOGSANDSCIENCE

We make canine science ACCESSIBLE and UNDERSTANDABLE for everyone.

Canine science offers deep insights into the behaviour and needs of dogs, empowering us to better understand and care for them. However, accessing and understanding this valuable science-based knowledge can be challenging. It often remains confined to academic papers and circles. At Dogs and Science, we are on a mission to change that. We believe that good science becomes transformative when it is shared, understood, and put into practice.

We advance and support canine science, translate complex, cutting-edge research into engaging, actionable knowledge for everyone, and help dog professionals and owners integrate this into their work and lives with dogs.

Whether you are a dog professional seeking to enhance your knowledge and practice or a dog lover aiming to deepen your connection with your canine companion, we provide essential insights for you.

Join us at Dogs and Science and transform your understanding of dogs through the power of science.

Canine Science explained

What is Canine Science?

Canine Science is the study of dogs and their wild relatives, such as wolves. This interdisciplinary field combines animal behaviour, cognition, genetics, veterinary medicine, and more. It explores all aspects of canine life, including

how dogs develop, think, and behave, aiming to deepen our empirical knowledge of dogs. Insights gained not only enhance our understanding but also informs practical approaches to health, welfare, and the human-dog bond.

Why Canine Science Matters to you?

Canine Science is more than just an academic field; it has profound implications for every dog professional and owner. It confronts widespread misinformation about dogs with robust, evidence-backed insights. This knowledge empowers you to enhance care, refine training techniques, and improve the overall quality of life for dogs. By grasping the scientific principles behind dog behaviour, you’re better equipped to effectively manage behavioural issues and create environments that promote health and happiness. Embrace canine science to bring a scientifically informed perspective to your interactions with dogs, ensuring they lead the best lives possible.
