The animal behavior world lost an amazing woman - Karen Pryor. She was a true pioneer in the world of behavior across species and brought all that knowledge to the world of dogs. We have learned so much from her and generations after us will continue to do so as well. I am forever grateful. Rest in Peace.

Good chilly morning K9K friends - I think I’ve been bamboozled!! GeeGee never has trouble getting a toy! She’s an expert problem solver!! Just so ya know - at the time she was “struggling” I was curled up with Max giving him some belly rubs. Mmmmhmmmm. You guessed it! She totally faked her “toy emergency” to get my attention! I thought the problem was she couldn’t get her toy when the REAL problem was I wasn’t paying attention to her! Gosh I love how dogs think! And this one made me laugh! Well done GeeGee - but I’m onto you now!
