Meet Brielle Hayes

Born and raised in Queensland Australia, Growing up her late father had a passion for dogs which he would pass down on to her, in her early 20's she moved to New South Wales were she worked at multiple animal shelters. She has dedicated her whole life to getting sheltered dogs comfortable in their new homes and finding love. Through her years of experiences, she learned that the first few months aren't about rushing progress, but giving a dog the time and consistency they need to feel safe.

We chose Brielle Hayes because her approach to adopted dogs reflects exactly what HOME STAY stands for: patience, structure, and trust.

Her experiences helped shape HOME STAY: The 3-3-3 Guide, giving new owners a simple framework for the first 3 days, 3 weeks, and 3 months after bringing their dog home.

  • Day-by-day checklists, starting with what to have ready before pickup day

  • A quick-reference stress-signal chart so you can tell "settling in" from "something's actually wrong"

  • A free printable Fridge Sheet — the short version of the 3-3-3 timeline, made to go on your fridge or by the door

Why We Made This


Most adoption advice tells you everything except what to actually do on day one. Home, Slowly exists to fix that: a plan built on the 3-3-3 method shelters and behaviorists actually use, written the way we wish someone had explained it to us.

FAQ

Is this a physical book?
No, it's an instant PDF download. You'll get the link right after checkout, nothing to wait for in the mail.

Can I print it?
Yes. It's formatted for standard US Letter paper, and the Fridge Sheet is designed to be printed on its own.

What if my dog isn't newly adopted?
The 3-3-3 method works for any dog adjusting to a new home: a new rescue, a foster-to-adopt, even settling back in after a long boarding stay.

Trustpilot reviews

Excellent 4.8 / 5

  • Home Slowly made the first few weeks with our rescue so much less stressful. The 3-3-3 method helped us understand what she actually needed from us.

    Amara K.

  • I was worried we were doing everything wrong at first. This guide gave us a simple plan to follow and helped our new dog settle in at her own pace.

    Isabella M.

  • Such an easy and reassuring read. I loved having clear steps for the first 3 days, 3 weeks and 3 months.

    Priya S.

  • Our adopted dog was nervous and hiding constantly. Home Slowly helped us stop rushing the process and focus on making him feel safe.

    Nia O.

  • I wish we had this guide with our first rescue. It explained so many behaviors we thought were unusual and showed us how to respond.

    Farah A.

  • Simple, practical and actually useful. The 3-3-3 approach gave our family a much better understanding of what our new dog was going through.
