Description

This is a 6 week long class designed to teach kids about working in animal welfare and good pet ownership.  These are hands-on sessions often times working with shelter dogs.  Each class is designed to cover one area of the responsibilities involved in caring for a dog, but also what we do in the shelter each day.  

This class is for kids 9 years - 11 years and the program fee is $40 (to cover the cost of materials*)

*If you find difficulties in paying the registration fee, please email Jen at jhuettich@cuyahogacounty.us
