This webcast was part of Camp Maddie: Pet-Inclusive Housing Edition virtual seminar.
Presenter: Shannon Glenn, Executive Director, My Pit Bull is Family
Dog-inclusive housing isn’t just about allowing pets—it’s about keeping families together and creating healthier, more compassionate communities. Across the country, many pet owners face tough choices due to housing restrictions, often having to give up their dogs. By embracing dog-inclusive policies, we can help families stay together and create neighborhoods where pets are valued as part of the family.
In this presentation, Shannon Glenn, Executive Director of My Pit Bull is Family, shares insights from over 13 years of advocating for dog inclusive rentals, showing how dog-inclusive housing improves both mental and physical health, lowers stress, and keeps pets out of shelters. She breaks down the real impact this has on families and communities nationwide, and discusses how everyone benefits when housing is accessible to all—pets included.
