The exhibit allows humans to experience what it&#8217;s like from a dog&#8217;s perspective from all senses. My six-year old daughter really enjoyed it. In a timed run, she learned she runs as fast as a pug!  The smell-sensitive display was my least favorite, but I imagine kids (especially boys) will be amused by the ground-centric smells such as urine! There were also &#8220;build a dog&#8221; displays, service dog sections, dog-focused artwork, and more! My daughter loves technology, so playing &#8220;virtual fetch&#8221; with a dog on the video screen entertained her for awhile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img
