Great course with a lot of new information, not just about dogs but even domestication of other species, including humans. The predictability of aggression in humans would be an interesting next topic

I learned valuable information about dogs. I can better understand the thought processes of my own dogs. I really like that the lecture slides were provided after the lectures, so I could review them.

Really interesting course that gives a great overview of some of the latest research in canine behavior. Helpful even for a regular dog-owner that just wants to understand the mind of their dog.

This course is essential for a dog owner, business, trainer or even if you are just a person who has an interest in dogs! Concise yet packed with information. Thank you

Dr. Hare was exactly the professor you would want him to be in this course. Enthusiastic, informative, and awe of the animals we call our best friend.

I really loved the course.I learnt a lot of new things about my dog.The videos were short and sweet which is why it was easy to understand.

This course was a good course to take on dog cognition and how smart your dog is.

The short 5 minute videos were too short and made it difficult to follow. Often times the video would end in the middle of a sentence.
Also too much cross selling trying to get people to use the paid site.

Subject matter is very interesting, but the instructor saying um and uhh way too much was very distracting and annoying.

It seemed this course was a teaser to get people to enroll in/pay money to join the dogcognition program at Duke. I realized this in week 2 and did not continue the course.

There are better ways to spend your time than on this 'course'. From the start I found myself irritated by what was said. It didn't feel based in science. The chosen breed of dog really is not representative of dogs as a species, and I believe dogs were being bred certainly as far back as Egyptian times and that's just for starters. I'd hoped to learn something about dog behaviour and dog cognition. For example to what extent does digging its own scrape to make a bed fulfil a dogs needs? How does a dog perceive a human kissing it... After two or 3 videos I gave up. There's even a sentence that states that using things learnt as life skills and applying in novel situations is not learning! There is invented wordage like dognition, and the so called games... I didn't like it and I didn't rate it and I won't be buying the book. I'm surprised a university has associated its name to this really. Very Americancentric.

Not to keen on spending $75 for a piece of paper that doesn't even mean anything it's not like the university that provides the course even recogonizes the course as literally anything why would anyone else? just because you paid $75! I could just make up a certificate and say I've got it and it would hold the same value as this, just because it's free doesn't mean it should be worthless....

The guy is full of shit. He's just trying to sell you his book and his online game product. He was also obsessed with bragging about all of his accomplishments. I was quite disgusted by him at the end. I paid for the certification, but now I want my money back.

Not a lot of information if you have even minimal interest in the subject.
Seems more like advertising to go to his somewhat bogus site and spend money for ego and add to his "research."

A waste of money. Only $50, but it was so terrible I did not even want to finish it. And apparently I waited too long to get a refund as well. Never again.

If you didn't like the first few lectures, you won't like the rest. It won't get better. More repetition, clichés, and advertisement that anything else.

I just do not feel a connection with this professor - he is constantly plugging his book and the website. The content is just not engaging.

A ploy to sell their books and internet subscriptions. If I could give negative stars, I would.
