Behavior Consultations
Homeward Pet Adoption Center’s Behavior Program offers free behavior consultations via phone or email in an effort to keep pets in their homes. If you have a question about your pet’s behavior, if you need advice on how to handle a difficult situation, or if you’d like recommendations for other certified behavior professionals in your area, please contact us using the questionnaire below.
Note: While many behavior issues can be solved with advice over the phone or email, there can be situations where an in-person professional is necessary. In those cases, we will help you find a professional in your area who can help.
We’re able to provide this free service because of our generous donors.
Please consider making a gift to ensure we can continue to support our community through behavior consultations.
Homeward Pet Adoption Center (HPAC) does not guarantee any specific outcome as a result of your consultation. All recommendations given are provided by a certified behavior consultant employed by HPAC, but you may be referred to a private trainer outside of the organization for in-person consultations as needed. The recommendation of any service or product is not a guarantee of satisfaction with that service or product. We do not provide in-home training or in-person consultations for animals who were not adopted through HPAC.
By contacting HPAC, you certify that you understand the inherent risks in owning a dog or cat, including but not limited to the risk of dog or cat bites to you or others. You also certify that you are and will remain responsible for the actions of your dog or cat at all times and agree to indemnify and hold HPAC and its employees, volunteers, directors and agents harmless of any and all claims of injury, expense, losses, damages and judgment of every kind and description caused by the actions of your dog or cat as a result of your consultation.
