Resources for Pets and Their People


Below is a list of resources for guidance and advice about common behavior and training concerns for new and not-so-new pet owners. I hope these resources will give pet owners understanding and advice about their pet's and animal behavior to help them better care for and handle their pet’s needs. I share this information in hopes that this knowledge will help reduce the number of animals being surrendered to shelters that are at a much higher risk of being euthanized in a shelter.
