Studying Saturday

Today I've done quite a few different things:

  • Sent reminders to the people I'd sent 'Does your dog make you happy?' questions to - and added a couple more to the list.
  • Searched for academic papers on 'dogs/pets and happiness'. There were quite a few.
  • Sent emails to some dog food suppliers and dog-related organisations asking them for any relevant press releases. I also asked to go on their mailing lists.

I'm now going to skim-read a couple of the documents that I've downloaded and retire at 17:30.
