Terriers: From Yorkies to Pit Bulls, What Makes Them Different? Speaker Ken McCort
CCPDT CEU’s -1 CEUs for trainers and 1 CEUs for behavior consultants
IAABC CEU’s- 2 CEU’s
This presentation will look at the behavior of terriers and the motor patterns that make them behave differently than other breeds. Although there is sometimes a genetic predisposition to behave like their ancestors, there are many things we trainers can do to get them to function as household pets. This presentation will examine the history, behavior and training of this group of dogs.

Deep in Thought or Panting Mindlessly? A Scientific Investigation of Anthropomorphism. Speaker Julie Hecht, MSc Lab Manager, Horowitz Dog Cognition Lab @ Barnard College
Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human characteristics to objects, events or nonhuman animals. It is often framed as the misattribution of human qualities to that which is not human. How do we consider an animal’s point of view while guarding against inappropriate use of anthropomorphism? And what does inappropriate anthropomorphism even look like? This presentation pulls from various disciplines to explore: how and why we anthropomorphize, physical and behavioral prompts of anthropomorphisms and exciting new research investigating notable anthropomorphisms.
