*We checked out the Humane Society Adoption Center on their website to see animals that were looking for homes.
*We learned that you can visit the Humane Society during March Break for special activities and can even hold your birthday party there if you really love animals.
*We learned rules for pet owners (stoop and scoop, leash law).
*We learned how to take care of pets by providing for them, protecting them and preventing unwanted 'litters'.
*We watched Penny do some cool tricks.
*We learned how to approach a dog that we don't know and everyone got to pet Penny!
Here are some tips:
Never approach a dog that you don't know- leave it alone.
We learned that we should always ask an owner if we can touch their dog.
When touching a dog, curl your fingers underneath so that the animal can't bite fingers.
Stand beside the dog and let it sniff you.
Stroke the chin, chest or back.....NEVER the head.
It was a great way to end our day and our busy week!
