What’s better than reading? 🤔📚
Reading to shelter pets! 🐕🐈
For our littles who can’t read words just yet, they can tell the story using pictures or listen as their adult reads to them AND the pets = win for everybody!! This helps socialize animals to prepare them for their furever homes and helps reduce stress. Let’s do our part to help Nelson County’s shelter pets!
🩵Starting June 2nd, we are offering a Read with a Pet program for school aged children grades 1st grade through 6th grade, accompanied by a parent or guardian. This gives students a chance to practice reading during summer break and a great chance to help us socialize some shelter dogs and cats. We will be unable to take dogs out of their kennels for this program. Give us a call the morning so we can have an idea of how many readers we will be hosting each day. 🩵
