The Chemistry of Play
Have you ever seen those videos that are designed to show how infinitely small we are? They usually start with a house and zoom out to the street, then the county, then the country, then the globe, the universe, the Galaxy and so forth.
Well, that’s how we feel about this. Watching this, you’ll learn snippets about chemistry and the beautiful interplay between important chemistry and play. It will hopefully emphasize the importance of understanding endocrinology and putting it into practice. Showing you why we teach it to our students in the first place.
Hopefully, you’ll leave with more clarity on where chemistry collides with dog training and how a better understanding of the ever-changing chemistry can help us bend and flex our practice. We hope it’ll get you thinking too.
Maybe this little snippet will hit your own dopamine surplus. Maybe you’ll leave wanting more…and if we were to zoom out, this tiny albeit important little snack of education is simply a street in the visual. The video is a Cameo in the Endocrinology Verse of our Behaviour Bible course. Zoom out, and you’ll see 17 other modules and a full-length interview with Simon Gadbois. Zoom out further, and you’ll see Chapter 1 of the Behaviour Bible with 7 Verses, each with their own modules, cameos and interviews. Zoom out again, and you’ll see there are, in fact, 3 Chapters with 7 verses each, making it an entire 3-year course designed as a functional degree equivalent.
After watching the free video, you can hop on the Behaviour Bible (Verse 1 or the full 3-year course) with a discount, but there’s no pressure. The free video is yours for life.
