Every year, millions of dogs and cats are euthanized in animal shelters. The majority of these animals are "strays" whose owners did not find and reclaim them in time. By getting missing pets back home quickly and preventing them from becoming lost again, you can save countless lives.

What happens to stray pets in shelters, and why are so few reclaimed? In this course you will learn the myth of pet overpopulation and how a focus on adoption perpetuates it. the barriers to owner reunion, and how to navigate the shelter system.
