If you would like to fund research on the human-companion animal bond, Pedro's Fund has been set up for this purpose.  A generous starter to the fund was made in 1997 and over the years the fund has continued to receive donations. These have enabled SCAS to initiate several research projects.  Follow this link to learn more about Pedro's Fund.
