Education for Adults

As part of our adult education program, we use social media platforms to help our community to become knowledgeable and responsible pet owners. These educational narratives appear twice a week, and each month we feature a different topic. Check out our Facebook and Instagram pages and be part of our informative discussions. These posts also appear on our website under our BLOG footer.
