New study investigates significance of sleep disturbance in dogs with deme
Updated : 2 years, 10 months ago IST
Dogs with dementia experience the same sleep interruptions as people with dementia. North Carolina State University researchers used electroencephalography, or EEGs, on senior dogs to see if brain-wave readings during sleep linked with indicators of cognitive decline. They discovered that do
