In this episode, Lauren shares the findings from her research on dog activity in fenced yards and the impact of fenced yard requirements on dog adoptions. It is so common for shelters to require a fenced yard for dogs for various reasons, most commonly for very active dogs. But do fenced yards really make a difference on dog activity levels? Are shelters unnecessarily limiting the pool of potential adopters with a fenced yard requirement? We discuss:

How dog activity levels sync with human activity
Owner perceptions of their dog's activity level compared with the results
How important are fenced yards for highly active dogs?
The potential impact of fenced yard requirements on dog adoptions
A better understanding of activity levels in dogs can increase the success of adoptions
