Shelter and Rescue Support
There are so many wonderful dogs in shelters and rescues waiting for their forever opportunity.
We know shelter/rescue staff and volunteers can be overwhelmed and in need of additional behavioral support to help set everyone up safely and successfully, both in shelter and when the dogs find placement. And we know providing support to fosters and adopters is key in helping ensure the pup’s transition home is successful for everyone.
With a soft spot for the underdogs and over 8 years of experience in shelters - volunteering, building and leading behavior programming, creating and leading volunteer trainings, and specializing in working with dogs exhibiting higher level behaviors - we’re here to help!
