In this episode, Trish McMillan bravely shares her experiences with dangerous rescue dogs and the unintended side effects of a 100% No-Kill policy by shelters and rescues. This is an important episode for anyone involved with working for shelters and rescues. We discuss:

Can training fix every single behavior issue?
How a 100% No-Kill policy may place more high-risk dogs into your community.
If every safe and family-friendly rescue dog is spayed/neutered, will it be harder to find safe family dogs in shelters?
Creating an adoptability criteria document for your shelter or rescue

Trish's bio:
Trish McMillan holds a Master of Science degree in animal behavior, and is a certified professional dog trainer, certified dog behavior consultant and associate certified cat behavior consultant. She has been involved in the animal rescue and sheltering world since the mid-1990’s, starting out as a volunteer and working her way up to director of animal behavior. She worked for the ASPCA for nearly eight years; first as Director of Animal Behavior at their NYC shelter, then as a behaviorist on their field team, helping assess and rehabilitate dogs from cruelty cases, dogfighting and hoarding situations, then she joined the Shelter Research and Development team.

Trish currently does animal behavior consulting near Asheville, North Carolina, working with dogs, cats and horses. Her farm, Pibble Hill, is home to a happy herd of animals of five species. Trish speaks and consults nationally and internationally on animal sheltering issues, dog, cat, and horse behavior, dog aggression, and defensive handling. Her online shelter dog behavior mentorship has helped students from around the world apply best practices at their respective shelters and rescues.
