Pet Retention Program
The SPCA is excited to announce Lisa Sweet as our new Pet Retention and Behavior Specialist. Lisa will manage our Pet Retention and Shelter Pet Enrichment Programs. The SPCA’s Pet Retention Program is partially funded by Banfield Charities, and aims to help pet owners and adopters address issues such as behavioral problems (i.e. housetraining, crate-training, barking, litter box issues) and short-term financial challenges, ultimately working to keep pets in their homes and out of the SPCA. Over time, we hope these programs will reduce the number of pets surrendered or returned to the SPCA. Lisa Sweet can be reached at (434) 964-3314 or via email.
