Wellness Wednesday: Exploring the Human-Animal Bond

Wellness Wednesday: Exploring the Human-Animal Bond


February 4, 2026

Join local veterinarian Dr. Dots Sherwood for a fascinating conversation on the human–animal bond and its impact on health and well-being. Drawing on research from the Human Animal Bond Research Institute (HABRI), this presentation will explore how relationships with animals influence physical health, mental health, social connection, and resilience across the lifespan. Dr. Sherwood will share evidence-based insights along with practical examples relevant to individuals, families, and our community.
After, we’ll have an hour of Yoga led by Bhakti Wojcik. As always, free soup and bread will be provided, and all are welcome!
This presentation was rescheduled from January 14
Kachemak Bay Campus - Room 202
