Description

"The ASPCA Behavioral Rehabilitation Center (BRC) is a first-of-its-kind facility in Weaverville, North Carolina, dedicated to the study and rehabilitation of homeless dogs suffering from severe fear and under-socialization. Since opening in 2018, the BRC has been treating rescued dogs including many from large-scale animal cruelty and neglect situations such as hoarding and puppy mills. At the 25,000-square-foot facility, behavior, medical and shelter experts implement specialized behavior modification protocols and care to improve the dogs’ quality of life and help them find loving homes. Treatment plans focus on helping dogs become comfortable with unfamiliar people, household objects and sounds, handling, walking on-leash and other real-life situations they are likely to experience in a home environment. Graduating dogs are transferred to shelters and rescue groups across the country for adoption or placed directly into new loving homes from the BRC."
