American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB): a group of veterinarians and research professionals who share an interest in understanding behavior in animals. Founded in 1976, AVSAB is committed to improving the quality of life of all animals and strengthening the bond between animals and their owners. Read their position statements on:

• Dominance - AVSAB's views on the theory of dominance relationships between animals, and hoping that it helps to dispel some myths that have recently become more prevalent among some who work in this field.
• Punishment-based training - the use of prong collars, choke chains, shock collars in behavior modification.
• Puppy Socialization - why it's important to socialize as early as possible
