New opportunity to be part of an international open science study with your dog- ManyDogs2! Note: if you took part in our MD2 pilot study last year, we can't test your dog again this time around, but we thank you, and hope to see you again soon! (Survey linked in Comments)

THANK-YOU for your interest in our new study. As usual, our dog-loving community has come through for canine science again!
We have PAUSED our study's sign-up for the moment, as the response has been so excellent. We hope to continue recruiting new participants in the coming weeks, so please stay tuned!
