In this episode of Dog Pro Radio, hosts Jason and Matt dive into an engaging conversation with Kim Brophey, an applied ethologist, certified dog behavior consultant, and author of 'Meet Your Dog.' They explore the evolution of dogs, their roles in human history, and the differences between village dogs and modern breeds. Kim discusses the impact of selective breeding and the potential future of dogs in an increasingly urban and sedentary society. The episode also touches on the importance of mental stimulation for dogs and upcoming projects, including a new total welfare model and an app to objectively measure dog welfare. The conversation is enriched with insights into how humans and dogs can better adapt to modern living conditions while ensuring the well-being of both species.
