Navigating Behavior Returns, Risk, and Humane Outcomes w/ Stacy Price: Free MMBC webcast Thurs Mar 26 at noon PT/3 pm ET

    Hi,

    Navigating dog adoption returns can be a complex and difficult issue, especially when a dog exhibits unsafe behaviors in their home. For Stacy Price, Chief Operating Officer at One Tail at a Time, her organization has developed a system that does everything possible to support and respect people and pets during these circumstances.

    While our goal is always to keep adopted animals in homes, there are times when a return is requested, and the shelter environment may not be in the dog's best interest-or safe for staff and volunteers. Stacy walked us through how to guide adopters through private rehoming when appropriate, the questions they ask before accepting a behaviorally complex return, and how they incorporate professional assessments into their decision-making.  The session will also covered how they provide compassionate support and clear guidance when behavioral euthanasia is the most humane option. 

    Learn more about the session or sign up for the FREE Maddie's Monthly Behavior Connection webcast on Thursday, March 26 at noon PT/3 pm ET!
