Dogs, Owners Wanted for Therapy Program

Volunteers and canines visit convalescent homes, rehabilitation centers and children's homes across the county to lift spirits and entertain residents.

Volunteers must be at least 18; dogs must be 1 or older. Both must attend an orientation meeting and observe a visit before joining the program. The next orientation meeting will be Sept. 27.
