Community Outreach

In addition to the services we provide for dogs, we also speak to groups (upon request) to help educate the community about various topics and/or to expose the community to how great rescue dogs can be. We've gone everywhere from schools to nursing homes. To learn more about these presentations, and to sign up to have us speak to your group, please see the Educational Opportunities page.

Here are some of the groups we've visited recently:
