Education & Resources
How can we help?
The following resources are available to assist rescues, adopters, and fosters become more successful. Many of these resources were developed by our fantastic partner, Good Dog Training, in Spokane, WA. Behavior is often the reason dogs are abandoned, or worst, put down. So many of the behavioral issues can be avoided by proper handling and training. These resources are provided for FREE because behavior should not be a death sentence. If you are experiencing issues with a pet or rescue and you need assistance beyond the basics provided below, please do not hesitate to reach out so we can connect you with individuals that can help.
