Therapy Dog Training Classes

Rescue Village is hosting a therapy dog training class beginning Sunday, July 7 from 10a.m. to 12p.m. for those who would like their canine companion to work as a therapy dog.

Dogs must be screened by the trainer prior to the class. Screening will take place on Sunday June 2 from 10a.m. to 12p.m. To make an appointment for screening, call Barbara Collins at 440.285.4679.

 

The six session class times will be assigned after screening and the options are: Saturday at 10:00am, and Sundays at 10:00am and 10:30am. The cost of the TDI class is $125 and registration is required prior to class date. At the completion of the class, dogs who are at least one year old or older, will be tested to receive therapy dog certification.

 

Geauga Humane Society’s goal in hosting the class is to recruit graduates as Rescue Village volunteer Ambassadors.  Ambassador dogs and their handlers represent Rescue Village at community events, work with TLC Kids Camp participants and visit classrooms.  Rescue Village Ambassadors are invaluable in helping Geauga Humane Society promote its mission.

Trap - Neuter - Return

Rescue Village endorses a feral cat population management method called Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR). TNR works because it addresses cat overpopulation where it starts - uncontrolled reproduction.

To participate or for more information, call 440.338.4819 ext. 10 or send us an email.
