Online Event – 11/6/25 – Maddie’s Monthly Foster Connection: Detective, Educator, Mediator: A Holistic Approach to Foster Behavior Support – Maddie’s Fund
Maddie’s Fund Presents: Foster insights are invaluable to shelters & rescues, and no concern should ever be dismissed or taken more lightly than the foster presents it. At the same time, that initial presentation of a concern tends to only offer one perspective: the human’s. Zan Lowell’s presentation will walk through example cases of their tried and true process of taking an analytical approach that simultaneously gets to the root causes of an animal’s concerning or unwanted behaviors and promotes a more nuanced understanding of those animals’ needs among fosters, all without sacrificing compassion for either.
