Our objective is to promote mutualism in humans' relationships with working animals such as service animals, therapy animals, animals trained to assist in public safety, and animals trained for search and rescue, as well as companion animals. We provide educational resources, guidance, and support to behavior consultants and the public on how to meet the unique needs of humans and animals in working and companion partnerships.
