About this event
Join the GW Dog Lab for fun, free enrichment with your dog! The GW Canine Cognition Collaborative (aka GW Dog Lab) is a student-run lab in the Anthropology Department.
Research sessions are on campus, after hours and on weekends, and are designed to last only 1 hour. Because humans and dogs share an environment, we can learn a lot about the way that environment has shaped our species by comparing dog and toddler cognition. We play simple games with dogs designed to measure their cognition and then compare them to toddlers.
How to Participate
1. Start by submitting a pre-screening form . This helps us learn about your dog
2. Next, open your email and look for your onboarding information sent from canine.cognition@gwu.edu.
3. Then, using the information in your email, sign up for your initial visit. This is a get-to-know-you visit that makes it easier for dogs to get acclimated to our testing space.
4. Finally, after the initial visit , depending on your dog's comfort level, you will get email invitations to studies your dog is eligible for!
Parking information can be found on the GW Dog Lab website .
