Covered In Pet Hair - Episode 46 2nd Chance For Pets

Amy Shever volunteered for many years at animal shelters in Northern California and witnessed pets tragically euthanized because pet owners died without planning for their continued care. Inspired by these tragic circumstances, Amy established the nonprofit, 2nd Chance 4 Pets, in 2004 and volunteers as the organization’s Director. The all-virtual-volunteer organization provides pet owners, veterinarians, animal welfare groups and senior organizations with free resources to help pet owners plan for the possibility that their pets might outlive them. In this episode, Amy and Isabel discuss the staggering number of pets that are surrendered due to their owners' death. Amy gives practical advice on how to begin planning, how to choose a guardian, and how to get started on a will that will identify such guardians. If you have a pet, this is a must-listen episode.
