Knox Botz FIRST Lego League Team #17682 is presenting this video as their solution to the FLL Animal Allies Project. We wanted to come up with a solution that would help decrease the stress of dogs in shelters. This video will provide shelter volunteers basic training so that they will interact with dogs in the same way. Shelters are a stressful environment for all dogs. If each wellmeaning volunteer uses different gestures and words with a dog, this only adds to their confusion and stress. Many smaller shelters do not have the staff or resources to hold regular training sessions for new volunteers. We hope this video could be incorporated into training for these shelters.
