Tucson area children can be paid to play with their dogs

TUCSON, Arizona (KOLD News 13) – The University of Arizona School of Anthropology is looking for 8-10 year old children with dogs to enroll in a study.

In a press release, the School of Anthropology said it needed to stop visits and suspend recruitment efforts during the pandemic, but they were ready to get them going again.

“We are very pleased to announce that we recently received approval to continue our visits and are currently recruiting families,” the school said.

Children enrolled in the study play with their pet, a dog they have never met, and toys to help researchers “learn more about human-animal interactions”.

The Arizona Canine Cognition Center and Primate Evolutionary Endocrinology Laboratory are also involved.

The school said parents and children will be compensated for their time.

Anyone interested in participating can email [email protected] or call 520-621-2646.
