"Our" as in "Wofford College's." John, her owner/trainer, is a retired psychology professor here, and Alliston Reid is a psychology professor. They did the research together and published the paper together. We (Chaser, John, Alliston and Wofford) are receiving worldwide attention for the research.

We (Wofford) claim Chaser, of course.

(Oh, I work at Wofford ... pr/media relations.)

I try to keep these two parts of my life very separated ... but sometimes I fail.
