In our world of constant change, it is reassuring to know that the goal of North Shore Animal League America has forever remained the same - to rescue and find loving homes for as many dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens as is humanly possible. In our effort to make it a safe world for all animals, the League is always striving to develop innovative ways to bring our animals to the attention of good families and to make the adoption process as easy and enjoyable as possible. Our Mobile Adoption Program permits an increasing number of potential adopters to become acquainted with our adorable pets. Our state-of-the-art motor coaches transport our animal orphans to centralized community locations where there are many kind and generous people who find it difficult to come to our Adoption Center. Once inside one of the 35-foot vehicles, these future pet owners meet a soon-to-be new best friend while adoption counselors conduct interviews and process forms - just as it is done at the League. Our quest to find loving homes for all companion animals has led us to share our mobile adoption vehicles with neighboring shelters. The League's Cooperative Adoption Program now assists other animal welfare organizations in bringing their sheltered pets to the attention of local people.


Recently, several exciting changes have taken place. We introduced a new logo. Through the Internet, the League's Adoption Photo Gallery has increase our ability to find happy homes for homeless animals. One aspect of the League will never change - our purpose and our goal since 1944 - to find loving homes for animals everywhere. It is a mission that, with your help, we will continue as long as there are homeless dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens.

Sincerely,

John Stevenson, President

   Welcome to the Trainers' Corner

A new pet is a full-time commitment - one that requires plenty of time, patience and effort. It is important to remember that even the most well-trained animal can become nervous and confused in a new environment, and accidents are likely to happen. Pet ownership is a huge responsibility with many different issues that can possibly arise. You should expect and allow for a few mishaps before your new best friend no longer soils or damages things in your home. Your new pet needs your time, patience and understanding so that he will learn what is expected of him in order to build a relationship based on mutual trust and respect. A little tender loving care and consistent training go a long way. In time, your pet will surely become a most wonderful addition to your family and a treasured companion.

To assist you with all your new pet experiences, North Shore Animal League America is happy to give you the insights and expertise of our staff of esteemed trainers and behavioral experts. "The Trainers' Corner" is here to give you invaluable information and designed to help you better understand your pet's needs, their behaviors, and to offer the best tips and techniques in making the owner-pet experience one of the most rewarding relationships you will ever have.
