It's All On Us w/ Anastasia Stellato, PhD

Anastasia Stellato is the Principal Investigator at Texas Tech University’s Human-Animal Interaction Lab, where she studies animal welfare. After becoming more of a dog person in her personal and professional life, Anastasia wanted to understand better why dogs react and behave in certain ways. More importantly, she wanted to figure out how to help them further. Through her research and the One Welfare approach that takes into account human welfare and environmental context, Anastasia and her PhD students study different situations and learn how to identify causes and solutions most accurately. She believes that we are just scratching the surface of what we can learn about our dogs, how we can be better companions to them, and how to apply our learning to improve our mutual connection.  For more information about the episode, guest, and featured links: www.dogsavethepeople.com/episodes/anastasia-stellato-2024
