The in-person series will be in the community room at Valley Humane Society’s adoption center on 3670 Nevada St. in Pleasanton.
While Valley Humane will not be doing its Critter Camp this year, the educational workshop program aims to reintroduce humane lessons for kids.
The Wednesday workshops are modeled for children age 8 and older. The sessions run from 4-5 p.m. with a variety of topics for every session. Workshop topics include Pets 101 and making dog and cat toys.
The Valley Humane Society has received a $1,500 grant from Petco Love, a nonprofit foundation founded by the Petco national chain of pet stores.
âMuch of our work centers on keeping dogs and cats out of the shelter in the first place,â said Melanie Sadek, executive director of the Valley Humane Society. âThis generous grant from Petco Love will help Valley Humane take a big step toward ensuring lost animals are recovered by the families who love them, instead of ending up in the system.â
The Pleasanton-based Valley Humane Society reported finding homes for 915 dogs and cats in 2020, a 29% increase over the previous year. Valley Humane said it also met a 400% increase in demand from people needing assistance feeding their pets during the COVID-19 pandemic through its AniMeals pet food pantry.
