"Unlocking the Mystery of Pet Communication: What Do Dogs Really Understand?

Have you ever found yourself talking to your furry friend, only to wonder if they truly comprehend what you're saying? Join us as we delve into the fascinating world of animal cognition with neuroscientists Marianna Boros and Lliya Magyari. Their groundbreaking study, which garnered international attention, sheds light on the depth of understanding our pets possess.

Boros and Magyari, from the Department of Ethology at Eotvos Lorand University in Budapest, Hungary, conducted EEG experiments on dogs, revealing astonishing insights into their comprehension of language. Contrary to popular belief, our beloved companions aren't just indulging us – they're actively processing information. From recognizing their names to activating memories associated with specific objects, our pets exhibit a nuanced understanding that challenges conventional wisdom.

Join us as we explore the implications of this research, from unraveling the mysteries of animal cognition to redefining our relationship with our four-legged friends. and.... Remember.... be careful of what you are saying....they may just be listening to you!!

Nicole Navarro the founder of "Pawsitive Beginnings" a Fox Rescue down in the Florida Keys, joins us to tell us all about her journey to helping these cute animals. Her stories are heartwarming and heart wrenching. When you hear all about the fox fur trade, I think you will be shocked to find there are still fox farms solely for the purpose of their fur.

Even crazier is the fox fur trend is coming back... by some of the biggest fashion companies in the world.

What Nicole is doing and has done, is nothing short of amazing..... and Reef, who is featured on the cover has become a local hero...

This is a must tell story.... for a much needed education.... of a cruel industry... that in my opinion... is not needed...
