Our Mentor – Dr. R.K. Anderson

It is with heartfelt thanks that we mention Dr. R.K. Anderson, who has inspired us to begin this effort.

Dr. R.K. Anderson was named one of the “25 to Watch in 2008” by Pet Product News International. Accoring to the article –

“After more than six decades as a veterinarian, one might think this 85-year-old co-inventor of the Gentle Leader would be resting on his laurels. Not so. In 2007, he launched the Animal Behavior Resources Institute, a nonprofit educational resource for animal behaviorists and their clients, and kick-started the Morris Animal Foundation’s R.K. Anderson Animal Behavior Research Endowment Fund with a $100,000 donation toward a $5 million endowment to fund animal behavior studies.”

The Animal Behavior Resources Institute’s web site is an amazing resource for people who want to help Save America’s Pets. There is a great selection of videos for pet adopting, some of them even shot from the dog’s point of view! Each month, new information is posted including informative articles that will help to educate the public and give us all important facts to help others Save America’s Pets.
