Prevention is the Best Intervention: Population Management to Minimize Behavior Challenges & Improve Outcomes for Dogs
Best Friends Animal Society
In a busy shelter environment, behavior problems can develop or worsen quickly and too often, we find ourselves reacting rather than preventing. This session will explore proactive population management strategies that reduce stress, support behavior health, and create better outcomes for at-risk dogs. Participants will learn how to identify early indicators of risk, implement systems that prevent long-term stays, and use housing, daily routines, and decision-making processes to protect the behavioral well-being of dogs in their care. Whether you're working with limited space, high volume, or complex behavior cases, this session will equip you with tools to make prevention a central part of your behavior strategy.
