Does my shelter need this service?

Yes! In today’s litigious society, shelters cannot afford to risk the serious repercussions of allowing a re-homed dog to bite.

Does it hurt the dog?

No! The Pendlebairn temperament test is psychology based and uses no harsh methods.

Aren’t all dogs essentially the same?

No! Like humans all dogs are different. The temperament test identifies the individual dog’s personality. This allows the behaviourist to create a home profile to suit the dog’s needs.

Is it cost effective?

Yes! Number of dogs returned will decrease. Throughput will increase and shelter reputation will improve.
