We have updated our logo and profile picture in rememberance of long-time HAWC mascot, Ian, who recently passed peacefully at the age of 14. This photo forever captures one of his favorite behaviors to show off to all - his super photogenic border collie wave! HAWC will always remember Ian's sweet disposition and smile, his motivation to play and love for learning new things, and the comfort he provided to many students who worked in the lab and clinic for the past five years. Although we miss him greatly, he has left his pawprints on many hearts and will continue to in spirit for years to come. 🐾

🎙📢 Why is pet ownership on the rise as households with children are declining? If you're like me, you probably consider your pets as family members and maybe even treat them similarly to children. I had so much fun chatting with Austin Cross on NPR's affiliate Los Angeles station AirTalk this morning about the psychology behind this "furbaby boom" 🐕 🐈 and how the science of human-animal interactions is showing us how similiar dogs and cats are developmentally and behaviorally and why we might anthropomorphize them so easily.

Listen in here: https://www.kpcc.org/podcast/airtalk/too-crowded-in-the-situation-room-how-public-opinion-influences-presidential-decision-making Don't be fooled by the link... I am no expert on presidential decision making 🙃 Our interview on pets is the third one down (title in pic).

Thanks to for inviting me and setting it all up!

We're working on new enrichment programs this weekend, and it looks like HAWC mascot Kobe is already dropping hints for our toy wish list in our Applied Animal Behavior Research Clinic! Despite their obvious holiday name, Jolly Balls are a year-round favorite for this tough senior dog. These soft, but durable ball-and-rope toys allow for chase, chewing, and tugging!

Our lab is preparing for a new study on dog and cat well-being for Spring 2022! We'll be sharing science-backed enrichment ideas for dogs 🐕, cats 🐈, horses 🐎, and even fish 🐠 and their families who are interested in providing a little extra fun and games for their companions. Have some ideas of your own? We'd love to hear them too!
