Dog Talk (6-14-2014) #375: Ann Phinney’s book FINDING MY WAY TO MOOSE RIVER FARM is about what happens when you make a childhood dream come true — and discusses the differences between dogs and pigs and how they learn and cohabitate with people; Stan Yocum is a puppy raiser for Canine Companions for Independence and discusses what goes into puppy rearing for 18 months and how difficult but gratifying it can be to give up that dog to the person he is paired with as a service dog; Julie Hecht is a canine behavioral researcher who manages Alexandra Horowitz’s Canine Cognition Lab at Barnard in NYC — and discusses the upcoming SPARCS conference in Newport R.I., an international conference on dog behavior and cognition that will be streaming free online June 20-22.
