What happens behind the doors of the animal shelter? This book will introduce the reader to the work culture of animal shelter employees, volunteers, activists, educators, and pets. By weaving together her own personal memoirs with interviews with workers, the author describes the traditions, philosophies, history, and current social dynamics of a typical animal welfare community. She examines how the daily interactions, personal philosophies, disparate methods, technology, and life experiences of the humans and pets influence the care of homeless animals, often playing an intricate role in the life or death situation each pet eventually faces.
Tami L. Harbolt earned a masters degree in folk lore from Western Kentucky University, and completed her graduate work at the University of New Mexico in American studies in 2000. During that time, she worked at the Animal Humane Association of New Mexico developing youth education programs.
