10:35 am
enbrel is clinically proven to provide clearer skin. many people saw 75% clearance in 3 months. and enbrel helped keep skin clearer at 6 months. enbrel may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal events including infections, tuberculosis,lymphoma, other cancers, nervous system and blood disorders, and allergic reactions have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether you've been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. you should not start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b, have been treated for heart failure, or if you have symptoms such as persistent fever, bruising bleeding, or paleness. finally, clearer skin for more than a few days, weeks or months. enbrel works for me. ask your dermatologist if you can have clearer skin with enbrel

>> i brought pablo along with me who is my own dog. he is a rescue border collie. then i have little zipper here. she's a friend of mine. she lives with five kids. >> wow. so dogs see joy, sadness and all of those things in our faces? >> as pet owners i think we can all agree that yes, we do. there was a really neat study where dogs were trained to look at pictures of people and they were designed to pick out happy and angry. but they were just given half the face. so they were given the eyes or the mouth. and they were able to pick out -- like in this video -- watch this dog. he's been trained to pick out happy faces. but look at only half of the face. and he can tell between happy and angry people. >> that's without the sound of a voice. >> absolutely. there's been some studies showing that dogs have a special place in their brain that actually detects emotion. we knew that. we didn't know they could detect these really subtle clues in our faces. >> i've been involved at times

in my life in really terrible things. they will come up and snuggle and not leave you and just burrow. >> they absolutely do. definitely it happens when we're stressed but people also suffer from ptsd where they will go into a flashback. some of these dogs need to be specially trained to kind of get them out of that flashback. >> tell us about the training. knowing that they have this ability, how does that help us when it comes to training our dogs? >> dog training got turned on its head not that long ago where suddenly everyone went against this whole idea of reinforcement being on the negative side. i want to get my dog to stop doing this so i'm going to punish it so it doesn't. dogs are reward seekingance. they're constantly looking after a good times. they even have something called a left side bias. they study the left side of our face. that's how they read our emotions. if you think about it going all the way back to evolution, if they were looking for a piece of food scrap food an angry

looking caveman isn't going to be as likely to give up his food as someone who's a little more welcoming. in dog training terms, that means positive reinforcement is the way to go. you want to play marco polo hot, hot, hot, warm. constantly guide them toward the reward. that's what they're wired to do. they're looking for a good time. >> and one of the other things i really liked about that study is the subtleties again of picking up just half the face. i think dogs are also designed to pick up other subtle medical issues. like we heard about service dogs that can pick up high blood sugar and low blood sugar. that they can pick up seizures. then i also heard about some dogs that -- >> he's picking up something right now. >> they actually can pick up when someone's starting to scratch, say ocd, the dog will pick up their brush, bring it to the person who is having that ocd episode and they'll stop it. >> remember with the young kids with autism? it just showed how these kids were opening up.
