How to Be a Dog's Best Friend

Wednesday, May 27 at 4PM

This special lecture is for kids (and their parents) to learn how to be a dog’s best friend by understanding what they like, and what they don’t like. Professional dog trainer and behavior consultant Veronica Grzybowska, CPDT-KA, CBCC-KA, will help kids understand how dogs communicate with us and with each other.

Meet adoptable dogs from 4 to 4:30 PM, followed by the lecture. Snacks will be provided.
