Melody Lamis works for Austin Pets Alive! which is a non-profit rescue organization in Austin, Texas. APA! helps the city of Austin achieve it's No-Kill status by pulling medical and behavior animals from the municipal shelter. Melody has been on the Dog Behavior Team at Austin Pets Alive! since September 2018. Melody uses her knowledge and skills to help shelter dogs, rescues and their humans to help get dogs into homes, prevent returns, and most importantly avoid the unnecessary euthanasia of shelter dogs. Melody strives to continue her education to become a better trainer and save more dogs.
