I lead the canine program in the Carroll College Anthrozoology department, in which students care for and train foster dogs during the academic year. My courses primarily focus on human-canine interactions and relationships. Subjects include canine ecology, domestication, international human-canine relationships and conflicts, feral, village, and street dogs, animal sheltering, welfare, ethics, critical theory, learning theory, ABA, ethology, basic canine training, behavioral problem solving, dog sports, service dogs, animal-assisted interventions, and canine scent detection. I also teach quantitative and qualitative research methods, introductory courses, business courses, and assist my students with independent projects and research. My materials overlap the disciplines of biology, critical theory, history, psychology, anthropology, and sociology.
