Webinar – 1/9/25 – Maddie’s Insights: Benefits of Pair-Housing Dogs on Welfare Measures and Length of Stay – Maddie’s Fund

Virtual

Maddie's Fund Presents: Dr. Feuerbacher and her team investigated the behavioral and physiological effects of single- or pair-housing shelter dogs, most of which had recently entered the shelter, as well as the impact of pair-housing on length of stay. In this talk, Dr. Feuerbacher will review the literature on cohousing dogs, go into detail on her study methods and results, and discuss the benefits and practical considerations of pair-housing dogs.
