A Science of the Canine Mind Series

Journey Capture: A Science of the Canine Mind is a book series that introduces a structured science for helping humans more deeply understand the domesticated dog. The series blends theory with practical observation and application, offering a framework for interpreting canine emotional and behavioral states in real-world contexts.

Accompanying the books is a developing technology designed to help identify a dog’s current emotional state and establish a meaningful baseline. When paired with situational context, this insight supports improved communication, emotional balance, and overall well-being—enhancing both survivability and quality of life.

This video introduces the Canine Emotional Roadmap, outlining the techniques used to support emotional regulation, strengthen communication, and deepen mutual understanding between dogs and humans. The CERTs (Canine Emotional Roadmap Techniques) are detailed in Book 2, while the foundational science of the Canine Emotional Roadmap (CER) and the structure of the canine mind are explained in Book 1 of A Science of the Canine Mind.
