Dogs on the Job

WORKING DOGS

Learn to train a working dog (i.e. police, therapy, or search and rescue dog) with a series of commands and hand signals.

 

Then, test what you’ve learned as an on-screen with our virtual dog “Molly” who responds to your hand signals and commands in real time. Also, learn about the many varied jobs of the modern dog.

Out of courtesy to our neighbors, only service dogs and invited demonstration dogs are allowed in the museum.
