The Duffield Institute for Animal Behavior builds on Cornell’s expertise to better understand animal behavior and improve the lives of pets and people who share their lives with them.
Discovery: Researchers seek to understand canine behavior starting from its genetic and environmental origins to develop cutting-edge interventions and treatments that work.
Outreach: Innovative programming helps owners understand their animal companions better and allows veterinarians to treat their patients’ mental, as well as physical health.
Service: Behavior experts work directly with patients and owners to help them live happier lives together.
Join us for a two-day symposium focused on:
Bringing together people across the service dog community to share and learn about evidence-based practices and innovative research.
Advancing the understanding of canine health and behavior to improve service dog training and welfare.
Fostering collaboration between service dog professionals and partners to address challenges in the field.
