Research Mini-Symposium - Welfare of dogs in commercial breeding kennels
Friday, June 24, 2022
9:00 am - 12:15 pm ET
The Croney Research Group and collaborators presented findings from their many studies on welfare in commercial kennels with implications for how people might use that information. The goal was to better inform state vets, state departments of agriculture, legislators at various levels, veterinarians and VMAs, NGOs, GOs, scientists and others about their findings so that people have a sense of what we now know that we didn’t before.
