Ideas and plans for providing shelter for pets and people facing housing challenges

Is your organization prioritizing programs and strategies to keep people and their pets together? If so, you may be looking for ways to provide shelter for families facing housing challenges. While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution, the Don’t Forget the Pets Handbook, brought to you by RedRover and Greater Good charities, offers a variety of strategies.

The 36-page resource includes, for example, many design ideas for group and individual pet housing, from outdoor doggy day care and temporary care facilities to communal rooms in your shelter. The nifty handbook includes links to helpful external resources and sample forms. You can also visit Don’t Forget the Pets for even more resources and support.
