It’s been a JOY to host Dr. Mia Cobb (Dr Mia Cobb Science at Melbourne University of Melbourne) for the last two weeks. Dr. Cobb’s research, funded by a The University of Melbourne Global Collaboration Grant, is working to pioneer new ways to measure positive welfare, meaning she’s trying to sniff out happy dogs!

Sprocket is very excited about this collaboration, as are we!
