Safety net programs are key to supporting pet retention and the behavioral health of pets at risk of shelter relinquishment. These programs benefit animals, pet owners, organizations, and communities. Given the multitude of program options, strategic program selection is critical, including consideration of goals, impact, and available resources. Programs must be thoughtfully planned, managed, and monitored to ensure that they meet pet ownership needs in the community and evolve as community needs change. With these considerations in mind, successful safety net programs are a critical tool in fostering an accessible and equitable support system for pet owners in the community.
