Dogs offer great emotional support and benefit to humans. In times of stress, urgency, and uncertainty - such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic - there is also an increased tendency for impulsive vs. well-considered decisions about many things, including the acquisition of dogs.

However, we have already begun to see many troubling consequences of the 'Pandemic Puppy' phenomenon. -
