From support to better outcomes.

Behavior rehabilitation can change shelter outcomes.

A public Multnomah County grant notice identified Lazin Animal Foundation as a funding source for a pilot canine behavior specialist program. The goal was to implement behavior modification plans, increase adoptability and reduce length of stay for targeted shelter dogs.

This kind of capacity-building support demonstrates how a foundation can create impact indirectly: funding skilled people and programs that help frontline organizations serve animals more effectively.
