Speaker: Chumkee Aziz, DVM, DABVP (Shelter Medicine Practice), Outreach Veterinarian, UC Davis Koret Shelter Medicine Program
Sanitation is one of the most underrated but important factors in maintaining animal wellbeing. We all know how important it is to keep infectious diseases at bay in shelters, but what about foster homes? These temporary havens are a lifeline for our most vulnerable animal populations, giving them a break from shelter stress and infectious disease risk while offering personalized care and attention. But let’s face it, foster homes are busy places! From kids to grandparents, and even resident pets, there can be a lot of interaction going on in foster homes. So, how do we keep these environments safe and healthy for our foster animals? In this webinar, we’ll explore practical, safe, and effective sanitation tips tailored to foster homes. By the end, you’ll know even more than you already do about creating and maintaining clean, nurturing spaces that support your foster animals’ recovery and wellbeing.
