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.

Hurricane Preparedness for Pets

June 1st marks the start of hurricane season in Florida. Every year, I see the same thing: a storm pops up on the radar, and panic sets in. People rush to gather food, batteries, flashlights…

But our pets can’t pack their own bags. They can’t tell us when they’re scared or what they’ll need if we lose power or have to evacuate. Take a quiet moment this week to prepare your pet’s emergency kit. Pack extra food, medications, vet records, and a crate or carrier. Ensure their tags are up to date and their microchip information is current. When the winds pick up, the last thing you want to worry about is whether your pet is safe. Let’s be ready for them.
