Exciting news! We hope this includes more understanding of how to care for the mental and emotional health of animals!
Would you consider learning about animal behavior an act of learning about human behavior?
Indeed! We’d go as far as to say all learning is a practice.
Interesting! We would love to see broader access to ethical, humane animal behavior education!
How we wish and hope for more recognition of these sentient beings and appreciating all their natural behaviors in their natural environment.
Now is as good a time as ever to join the IAABC Foundation for a thoughtful conversation on trauma-informed care in animal behavior consulting.
February 18 1pm EST
Free with Registration iaabcfoundation.org/dei-events/
See you there👋🏼
Strategic planning is making us think of things like “If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything”.
We do what we do for the animals.
We learned so many new things at the conference. And now have so many new questions.
#IAABCFoundationConference #NeverStopLearning
Where better to expand our knowledge than a city that’s home to both the U.S. Olympic Training Center and over 300 days of sunshine a year? Colorado Springs: where elite athletes and elite animal behavior pros go to level up.
Today marks Mexico’s victory at the Battle of Puebla in 1862 — a powerful symbol of resilience and pride.
To our educators, students, and volunteers celebrating today: ¡Salud! We're glad you're here.
Let joy, culture, and connection lead the way.
May the 4th of continuous learning be with you.
Baxter. I’m not mad. I’m impressed.
Started with: “Is that a happy or nervous tail wag?”
Led to: “Why did that account post that?”
Behavior science: the original whydunnit.

11 days until Conference. Which topics are you excited for? iaabcfoundation.org/animal-behav...
What animal behavior book did you pick up from your local bookstore today? #IndependentBookstoreDay
April 25th. It’s not too hot, not too cold. The perfect date to don a light jacket and go for a stroll with a dog, cat, horse, parrot or whoever your companion animal may be.
Reflecting on lessons from the 2024 Conference: Being the only one responsible for a pet’s well-being can feel overwhelming.
Trying to get a whole household on the same page? That can feel just as hard.
Sessions like Gabrielle Johnson’s remind us that behavior support is human work, too.
Science isn’t a destination. But, it can be a self-correcting journey though sometimes with delays, challenges, and even resistance. New understandings emerge through inquiry, questioning and open dialogue.
It looks like this model is running the ‘inverted cozy’ protocol 😻 We’re all about decoding the delightful mysteries of cat behavior over at @IAABCFoundation.
How do the choices we make for animals reflect the choices we make for the world? 🌍 #EarthDay #AnimalBehavior
Fresh starts don’t have to be tied to a calendar.
🌷🌱Every day is a good day for us to learn better and do better for all animals.

Does anyone else wonder what Lenny is thinking?
Working irl with horses, shelter behavior assessments, behavior analysis & enrichment at a zoo, and a guided nature hike. These are the intimate IAABC Foundation’s pre-conference education opportunities available! Change starts with how we learn, listen, and lead — in every community.
Thank you Einstein. We hope the world stays curious as you did.
Ever watch a viral animal video and wonder what the animal is thinking? That curiosity is what we’re here for.
Did you know humans are naturally amazing at handling disagreement?
Yeah... we didn't think so either. 😅
Come watch the Colorado College debate team show us how disagreement can actually lead to growth (and laughs) at our Animal Behavior Conference Lunch & Learn this May!
At 6,035 feet, Colorado Springs is a mile high—so you could say we’re taking your learning to new heights at the IAABC Foundation Animal Behavior Conference, May 9–11, 2025⛰️
Hello World and all its creatures👋🏼
