Does anyone else bring a dog up to the front office to decompress and get more face time?
I’m not sure if my shelter I volunteer at has always done this since I’ve only been here a year, but we do it as much as possible and wow!! What a difference. The dogs love to hang out up front safely without a leash or noise (there is a sliding glass door on the side so they’re completely closed in). We’ve had SOOOO many adoptions from this too! People coming in for random things and seeing them and fall in love. Sometimes it’s dogs who need to decompress sometimes it’s dogs that just present badly in their kennels form the stress of it all. This is Brice in the photo, he’s declining from stress so he got a nice break up front today and really loved it. Fingers crossed for Brice!
