Pet Behavior Resources

Dogs and cats don't come with an owner's manual so here are some resources to get you started.  Animals are very eager to please and so we encourage you to work through behavior issues, as sometimes they may be more related to how we as humans are acting or treating the animal.  A small change may make a big difference in the relationship with your furry friend.  If you need further assistance, please feel free to call our shelter.
