SDHS Behavior Center Grand Opening

This month, San Diego Humane Society is celebrating the grand opening of their new Behavior Center. This state-of-the-art facility is now home to one of their most unique lifesaving programs. Since it launched in 2013, the Behavior Center has rehabilitated more than 3,000 animals to prepare them for new homes.

The New Behavior Center Features:

  • 44 dog habitats, specifically designed with:

    • Privacy and sound-proofing to reduce stimulation.

    • Access directly into shaded outdoor play yards, allowing trainers to work with dogs in a safe environment who are too shy or fearful to be leashed without extreme anxiety.

  • Cat housing for more than 40 cats in an isolated wing that provides separation from dogs to reduce stress and facilitate their individualized training plans. This cat housing provides unique features, including:

    • Hiding places for shy and fearful cats.

    • Use of primarily horizontal bars on habitats research shows that cats naturally scan their surroundings horizontally, and that vertical bars interrupt this process and cause unnecessary stress.

    • A community cat room with access to the outdoors for enrichment.
