EVENT DETAILS
"Tales for Tails" at the Clairemont Library

The Clairemont Library will host a free interactive animal program with the San Diego Humane Society’s Pet-Assisted Therapy Program on Friday, May 28th at 4:00 pm. This monthly program helps children improve their reading skills by reading to animals in a fun and relaxing environment. The animals will include guinea pigs, rabbits, rats, and sometimes dogs and cats. This program will occur on the 4th Friday of every month at 4:00 p.m. This program is appropriate for grades 1-6, and no sign-up is required.

The San Diego Humane Society has been bringing the joys of animals to people for more than 30 years through its Pet-Assisted Therapy (P-AT) Program. Volunteers bring resident rabbits, guinea pigs, rats and sometimes adoptable puppies and kittens to visit people who aren't able to experience the joys of pet ownership. Many volunteers have taken their dogs through a special class called Canine Good Citizen and their dogs have passed the Canine Good Citizen test. These dogs and people provide an extra dimension of happiness to the residents who look forward to seeing them each month.
