If You Are Anxious, Your Dog May Be Feeling The Stress, Too
Numerous studies have found that dogs and their owners can experience synchronized emotions and stress levels, especially during acutely stressful or exciting activities. A new study followed dogs and their owners to see how stress hormones in animals and humans changed over time. The results suggest that if the owner is stressed, then the dog is also likely to mirror that stress. The researchers then took hair samples from the dogs and their owners to test for the stress-related hormone cortisol, which can be detected in hair. They found that dog cortisol levels mirror the personality traits of their owners. Maybe even more interesting was that the owner's personality influenced the dog's cortisol level, rather than the dog's personality itself.


 

 

 

 
MESSAGES:

 

Dear Valued Animal Radio Affiliate,

As we prepare to air our final broadcast on January 17th, 2026, we wanted to reach out with a personal and heartfelt note of gratitude.

For a quarter-century—through 1,263 shows—you have been an indispensable partner in sharing the passion and love of animals with listeners across the country. Animal Radio was born from a simple idea after a stint in a doghouse, and it grew into a national success story largely thanks to the great radio stations like yours that believed in our mission.

Our long run, covering 25 incredible years, wouldn't have been possible without your unwavering support and dedicated airplay. You gave us the platform to celebrate pets, interview fascinating guests, and connect with a community that cares deeply about furry, feathered, and scaled family members.

Working with your team has been a true joy, and we have genuinely enjoyed "going to work" every week, fueled by our shared passion.

While this chapter is coming to a close, the memories of this incredible journey will last a lifetime. Thank you, once again, for making Animal Radio a meaningful part of the radio landscape.

We wish you and your listeners all the best.

With deepest appreciation,

The Entire Team at Animal Radio
