After much anticipation, the San Diego Humane Society opened a new health facility on September 4 with the purpose of helping animals with behavioral challenges. This center is located on the San Diego campus, where potential nuisances can be eliminated for the convenience of the animals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Disturbances such as noise are removed for animals dealing with anxiety or fear, so that they can be in a calmer environment while preparing for adoption. The center is also the only facility in the San Diego area that supports this kind of complete animal rehabilitation.<\/span><\/p>\n

The center\u2019s director, Amanda Kowalski, was very excited for the opening of the location and commented, \u201cThis is such a wonderful day for us \u2026 It\u2019s been a few years of really thoughtful planning and design to create a facility that really makes an environment where our animals can learn and overcome fears and phobias and we can get them ready for adoption to find new homes.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

During the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the center received a proclamation from the City of San Diego that declared September 4 as San Diego\u2019s Pet Behavior Wellness Day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The CEO and President of the San Diego Humane Society, Gary Weitzman, stated to the Times of San Diego<\/em> that he will not take for granted the great opportunities the organization has with this center and its ability to care for animals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By removing the fear from the animals dealing with anxiety and other behavioral issues, the pets will be able to get easier access to the care they need for adoption.<\/span><\/p>\n
