Hi Catherine
We have had a few hoarding case of different species. (Dogs, cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs) We rely on fosters to help use socialize the animals. Especially the dogs. We had to separate them to get them better social and get fosters that understood the behavioral the dogs have. I hope this helps. Feel free to email me if you like.

Hello All,
We just intook about thirty-five dogs from a hoarding situation. I'm hoping folks can point me toward some resources that are go-tos for understanding and supporting their behavioral needs as well as special considerations and resources for adopters.
