Description

"We know the tireless work that shelter/rescue staff and volunteers devote to the dogs (and all animals) in their care. We also know that providing for dogs with separation anxiety in the shelter/rescue system has been a challenge for quite some time. In this presentation, we will delve into some new shelter/rescue resources for supporting dogs struggling with this behavior issue and discuss best practices for successfully adopting out a dog with separation anxiety. We have listened to and learned from so many shelters and rescues about the challenges they face caring for dogs with this issue, including launching a survey in 2023 to gather as much data as possible about these challenges and how to better support them in responding to them. This session will include some interactive discussion, and participants will leave with ideas and resources to take back and implement in their local contexts."
