University of Puget Sound Oxytocin and Social Learning Dog Cognition Study
Drs. Erin Colbert-White and Alexa Tullis and student researcher Skyler Dela Cruz ('23) from the University of Puget Sound are conducting a research study to determine if oxytocin—the famed “love hormone”—affects dogs’ ability to learn from humans.
We are looking for friendly, food-motivated dogs that are at least 20 lbs and 1 year old. Sessions are conducted on the University of Puget Sound campus and participation with your dog will typically take no more than 50-60 minutes.
