AB  - Dear Colleagues,

Human–animal relationships extend far beyond the family home, influencing diverse contexts such as veterinary practice, agriculture, workplace settings and therapeutic environments. While much research has focused on companion animals within household settings, there is a growing need to explore how different stakeholders—pet owners, veterinarians, farmers, zookeepers, shelter workers and other professionals—experience and navigate human–animal interactions. This Special Issue aims to advance interdisciplinary knowledge on these relationships by addressing their psychological, social, ethical and organizational implications.

We invite empirical and theoretical contributions from various disciplines, including psychology, organizational behavior, sociology, animal studies, veterinary sciences and agricultural studies. Submissions may employ qualitative, quantitative or mixed-method approaches.

We welcome papers that address, but are not limited to, the following themes:

The role of veterinarians and veterinary staff in mediating human–animal relationships.
Psychological and emotional dimensions of human–animal interactions in professional settings.
Ethical and well-being considerations in animal husbandry and agriculture.
The impact of pet-friendly workplace policies on employee well-being and productivity.
Human–animal interactions in animal-assisted interventions beyond home settings.
Work–pet family conflict: how work responsibilities impact pet care.
Social Exchange Theory and Work–Family Enrichment Theory applied to human–animal relationships.
The influence of cultural and societal norms on professional and institutional human–animal relationships.
