Abstract: In the Fall of 2023, we participated in SCUDEM VIII, out of an interest to apply our knowledge in differential equations to a real-life situation. The real-life situation we were given was a dog named Fritz that was struggling to catch treats thrown by its owner. We were asked to determine whether the dog was bad at catching or if the owner was bullying the dog.

In this talk, we would like to introduce this challenge, present our models, our results, the feedback we received from the judges, and share how and why SCUDEM was such a beneficial experience. Our work on this problem received an outstanding award and can be seen on the SIMIODE YouTube channel.
