Human animal interventions are the way forward! We should embrace it in this part of the world

I love that some animals can sense how you feel... My cat knows when my mood is low and tries to cheer me up😻 💜

[@dr.sunday3124]

Awesome! Great to hear this

This is an amazing talk and as a graduate student studying the same topic in America, I love that the topic, research, and impact transcends borders

[@dr.sunday3124]

"The impact transcends borders." So true. Thank you, Kaelyn, for your kind words.

[@kristenprentice7343]

As a woman in America wanting to study this topic at the graduate level I would love to speak with you, @kaelynakexander7371. My feelings and observations were mirrored. The transcendence of the research and impact across borders is a large interest of mine.

Very insightful! I was just thinking recently about recommending this animal assisted therapy for a child living with autism who we work with. Way to go Dr. Agbonika!👏👏👏
