Yes, this webinar series is entirely educational in nature. All content has been developed based on peer-reviewed academic research in the fields of human-animal interaction, emotional intelligence, and behavioral psychology. The sessions are designed to help participants understand the science behind how dogs influence human emotions, stress responses, and social behavior. We draw from established journals such as Anthrozoös, Frontiers in Psychology, and the Journal of Applied Animal Welfare Science. The goal is to share knowledge and practical insights that participants can apply in their own lives, not to promote any commercial product or service.
Yes, participation in both webinar sessions is completely free. There are no hidden fees, no premium tiers, and no paid upgrades. We believe that knowledge about the emotional benefits of human-dog interaction should be accessible to everyone. You simply need to register with your name and email address, and you will receive all the details necessary to join both sessions. This initiative is funded by MALVERN BALLET SEMINARS LTD as part of its commitment to educational outreach and public knowledge sharing on topics related to emotional well-being and animal-assisted learning.

Each webinar session lasts between 60 and 75 minutes. This duration is designed to provide enough time for a thorough presentation of the topic, interactive exercises, and a question-and-answer segment at the end. Session 1 on September 15, 2026, focuses on the foundational concepts of dogs and emotional intelligence, while Session 2 on September 22, 2026, covers practical techniques and applications. Both sessions start at 19:00 EET. We recommend joining a few minutes early to ensure your connection is stable and you are ready when the session begins.
While each session can be attended independently, we strongly recommend participating in both. The two sessions are designed to complement each other: Session 1 lays the theoretical groundwork by exploring how dogs influence human emotional processes, while Session 2 builds on that foundation with hands-on techniques and practical exercises you can incorporate into your daily life. Attending both sessions will give you a more complete and nuanced understanding of the subject. However, if scheduling constraints prevent you from attending one session live, you can always view the recording afterward.
