Engagement and Outreach 

Canine Welfare Science Website Created

The Education and Outreach team of the Croney Research Group has spent the past year developing a new Canine Welfare Science website with funding from The Life of Riley at Spring Point. The site aims to promote the welfare of dogs by providing carefully curated, science-based information from a variety of sources that are easily accessible and relevant to commercial dog breeders, shelters, pet families, and other individuals and organizations that care about dogs. Our goal is to bridge knowledge gaps within the canine caretaker community and to connect communities of caretakers with the shared goal of supporting the welfare of dogs living in breeding, research, teaching, and sheltering kennels as well as in homes. The website continues to grow during the development process, but there are many, many resources you can access now. Visit the site at https://caninewelfarescience.com.
