Alexandra Horowitz, THE YEAR OF THE PUPPY: How Dogs Become Themselves

Guest host Julianna Goldman interviews dog researcher and New York Times bestselling author Alexandra Horowitz about The Year of the Puppy: How Dogs Become Themselves, a keenly observed and highly illuminating scientific memoir about her puppy Quid’s first year of life. Alexandra talks about a dog's extraordinary birthing and olfactory abilities, the most influential moments in a puppy’s life, and her relationship with Quid (it wasn’t love at first sight!). Finally, she describes her path to becoming a dog scientist and her fascinating work at the Dog Cognition Lab at Barnard, which she founded.
