Foster is arguably the single most important intervention to save dogs’ lives which is why this year’s Dogs & Data webinar series will focus on establishing and / or expanding foster programs. Foster reduces length of stay at shelters easing capacity challenges so shelters can focus on essential needs like transport, behavior training, and medical care – key factors in increasing adoptions. It also provides dogs with valuable home experience, enabling foster families to advocate for what the best home looks like for each pup.
That’s why Pedigree Foundation and Adopt a Pet are partnering to share expert insights on creating a foster-centric shelter model. These data-driven sessions will provide practical strategies to improve volunteer recruitment, onboarding, and the overall fostering process. Whether you’re launching a new program or enhancing an existing one, you’ll gain the tools and confidence to elevate your organization’s foster success.
These webinars are designed for animal welfare professionals of all levels who are looking to establish, enhance or expand foster programs.
Hosted by: April Huntsman, Senior Director of Animal Welfare for Adopt a Pet and Kristen Hassen, Founder and CEO of Outcomes for Pets Consulting
