In this session, Laurie Lawless and Sue unpacked how shelter behavior assessments have evolved and what truly helps teams make sound, welfare-driven decisions. Together, they examined the limitations of rigid, one-size-fits-all tests and the power of observational data collected over time.
Caitlin and Laurie will explore what puppies need to thrive in a shelter setting, even when resources are tight. From developmental milestones to daily enrichment strategies, you’ll walk away with a clearer plan for raising confident, healthy pups who are ready for adoption.
