🚨 USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service is seeking public comments, scientific data, and stakeholder input to help determine whether updates are needed to Federal regulations governing the humane care of dogs.

Public input on topics include:
▪️What veterinary and nutritional care breeding females require

Two spots left!

Interested in therapy dog work but don't know where to start? Join Dr. Angie for this 3 week skill-building course! Practice and strengthen your leash walking skills, extended stays, reactions to distractions, navigating crowds, controlled introductions to medical equipment, and more. Upon successful completion, you will be well positioned to move into our full 6 week therapy dog preparation course!

Pupdate: Class is full! However we added a 2nd one, 5:30-6:30, same days!!

Trying a little something new! In partnership with TipTopTails Dog Training, we’re offering a primer to our full therapy dog prep curriculum. This is specifically geared toward folks with pups that would benefit from just a bit more training. Success here will fulfill the prerequisite (typically a Canine Good Citizen evaluation)!
