2.2. Survey design
The survey was developed with guidance from shelter veterinarians, survey-research experts and epidemiologists and focused on four major areas: demographic information, infectious and zoonotic-disease concerns, infection-control policies and worker training. All respondents were asked questions about shelter characteristics during the previous year (2006) including admission and administration, medical records, source and disposition of animals, number of staff, species accepted and condition of animals on arrival. In addition, respondents were asked to rate their level of concern (low, medium, high or no concern) for specific infectious and zoonotic diseases. Respondents were asked about diagnostic tools, and policies used in the practice of infection-control including available equipment, isolation and preventive-medicine protocols and vaccination and deworming practices. Questions were included to characterize the amount and extent of training offered to staff and volunteers including desire for future training. An introductory letter was sent to each shelter with the survey explaining the purpose of the study and ensuring that responses and shelter information would remain confidential. Surveys were mailed out during the first quarter of 2007. Those shelters not responding within two weeks were sent an additional letter and survey; those not responding within two weeks were mailed a third letter and survey. No further attempts were made to contact non-responding shelters. The survey was pre-tested at an animal shelter not included in the study and revised based on their recommendations. Response choices were limited to specified response choices or based on a Likert scale (“no concern”, “slight concern”, “moderate concern”, “great concern” valued as 1–4). Some questions included an “other” category to give respondents the ability to provide what they felt was the most correct answer. Approval for this study was obtained from the Institutional Review Board at Colorado State University.
