About this listen

 In this episode of How Humans Talk, Rune heads to the park to chat with dog owners, speculates with scientists, and barks up a storm with his furry friends. Alongside for the journey is University of Melbourne animal welfare scientist Dr Mia Cobb, who explains the nine different ways we communicate with our canine companions. From playful baby talk and stern commands to quiet, soothing whispers. Together they explore what our speech reveals about our relationships with dogs, and why the way we talk to animals says just as much about us as it does about them.
