REDUCTION OF PET SURRENDER: WE PARTNER WITH OAS TO IDENTIFY THE COMMON REASONS THE PUBLIC SURRENDERS THEIR ANIMALS. THIS ALLOWS US TO IMPLEMENT PROGRESSIVE AND PROACTIVE STRATEGIES TO HELP SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY AND REDUCE THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS TURNED INTO THE SHELTER FOR PREVENTABLE REASONS.

FOSTERING ANIMALS IN A TEMPORARY HOME HAS MULTIPLE BENEFITS, INCLUDING LEARNING MORE ABOUT THE DOG'S BEHAVIOR AND TEMPERAMENT, AND AN OPPORTUNITY FOR TRAINING BEFORE ADOPTION. OUR DOG FOSTER TEAM AND TRANSFER PARTNERS SAVE DOGS' LIVES BY OPENING UP MORE KENNEL SPACE FOR DOGS THAT MAY NEED IT THE MOST.
