Have you watched the 'Pet' talk concert?


The Silla University (President Heo Namsik) Companion Animal Industry Specialized University Innovation Research Complex (I-URP) Project Group held the '2026 Companion Animal Industry Field Voices PET-SOLVER Talk Concert' on May 14 at the university's Future Aviation Convergence Hall.


This event was organized to provide students preparing to enter the companion animal industry with practical, field-based experience and information.


Silla University explained that, due to continued interest from students in the Department of Companion Animal Studies, pre-registration for the event closed early and on-site registration was also offered.


The event featured Seol Chae-hyun, director of Nollo Behavior Clinic, who was the first veterinarian in Korea to obtain KPA-certified clicker trainer qualifications, as a guest speaker.


Director Seol gave a lecture on the topic "No Two Dogs Are Alike," discussing the causes of behavioral problems in companion animals and the role of guardians. He also explained the importance of communication in the relationship between dogs and their guardians, as well as the need to understand animal behavior.



Bae Il-kwon, head of the Silla University I-URP Project Group, said, "I hope the experiences shared by field experts will be helpful to students," adding, "We will continue to run programs to nurture professionals for the companion animal industry and vitalize the industry ecosystem."

After finishing the talk concert, the students stood in front of the camera.
