In a recent conversation with USA Today, Lisa Williams, President of PeeKeeper, LLC, states there is an increase in “pandemic pooches”. The Covid-19 pandemic has many more people staying home. There are more people adopting dogs which is great for shelters.
“There are more people adopting puppies, and so there were more people doing house-training,” said Pam Runquist, executive director of the Humane Society Veterinary Medical Association. “I think also, in places like New York City, people were not wanting to go outside and were utilizing dog diaper methods.”
