Request for Behavior Consultation - Friends For Life Animal Shelter

Force-free. Fear-free.

Our behavior team uses force-free, fear-free training techniques that follow the proven “LIMA” (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) approach. These methods are not only proven to be the most humane, but they are also the most effective.

When we take an evidence-based approach to our work, we are able to track our results and to have a clear way to measure our impact. That ripples out to everything that we do.

Check out our behavior resource library.

We have a database of practical information — on everything from litterbox issues to food guarding to inappropriate elimination to crate training.
