Do you adopt dogs into families with kids?

If so, you may be feeling…

  • unsure about the “right” age of kids to include in your adoption requirements – or if you should adopt to families with kids at all
  • nervous about making suitable matches
  • worried about dogs being returned due to poor fit…or worse
  • anxious about your reputation if the family needs to return the dog

Adopting to families with kids can feel like a risk. But Pooch Parenting can help you and your adopters to be successful.

Online Workshop for New Adopters with Kids

My convenient online workshop, Kids and Dogs 101, will give parents peace of mind with their new dog. This workshop contains tips to help your kids and your new dog to have a safe and positive relationship that will last a lifetime. Shelters and Rescues can contact me directly for a discount code for their adopters to use.

Free Workshop for Adoption Staff

Happy Tails: Setting up Adopted Dogs to Thrive in Homes with Children. This FREE workshop is for people who work at Shelters and Rescues and want to learn about best practices for placing dogs in families with kids.

Most of our returns have come from families with children. Our goal is to make "forever families" for our dogs, and after taking Michelle's workshop, we feel more confident to make this happen.
