The IAABC Foundation Journal is a scholarly-professional publication dedicated to bridging the gap between behavioral science and real-world application for animal professionals. Operating as an open-access, online resource, it publishes a diverse range of peer-reviewed research, applied case studies, and ethical commentaries covering species from companion animals to livestock and wildlife. It is particularly useful for pet sitters and trainers because it translates complex academic theories into actionable “best practices,” providing evidence-based insights into animal emotions, learning theory, and welfare. By focusing on LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) principles, the journal helps professionals elevate their standard of care, improve client communication, and stay current on the latest advancements in the field of animal behavior
