Have you found a stray dog or cat, or do you need to find a new home for your pet? We hope the suggestions in this resource will help you. First, we’ll talk about what to do if you’ve found a stray. (If you locate the pet’s owner, you may not even need to find a new home.)
In this resource, Gregory Castle, Best Friends CEO, walks you through a dozen ways to help build a successful coalition of animal welfare organizations.
Because money is essential to achieving our goals for the animals, organizations need to continuously bring in revenue. Fundraising doesn’t have to be difficult or intimidating, but it does require planning.

Your staff and volunteers can do their good work knowing that you have the resources in place to fund it.
This two-part action kit provides resources and examples of ways to promote shelter dogs in order to increase their chances of adoption.

Highlighting the unique characteristics of a dog can make all the difference in getting that animal adopted. Part 2 offers practical tips for putting on adoption events. Holding adoption events periodically can really help increase a shelter’s adoption rate.
