Evaluating Animal Shelter Adoption Methods

A medium-sized black, white, and tan dog with prominent floppy ears and its tongue extended, wearing a green collar with an orange tag and a black harness, walks on a patchy green and dry grass field. The lower legs of a person wearing a black skirt and black sandals are visible to the right, holding a pink leash. In the sunny background, trees, buildings, and a soccer field with a person playing are visible under a blue sky.

She is wearing a light-colored (possibly off-white) blouse with a subtle dotted texture and a gold necklace with an oval pendant depicting a balance scale. The background is solid white.

Research Summary

Evaluating Animal Shelter Adoption Methods discusses what methods and techniques animal shelters are currently using when adopting out animals and how they can improve their current operational standards. This project will use qualitative research to analyze interview techniques employed by animal shelters and the success of each one. It will then utilize the coding method of research to determine reoccurring themes that animal shelters can introduce to support their communities and future adopters. By increasing support for current and future adopters, we can keep pets out of shelters and instead happy and healthy at home.
