Education
Focusing on the Next Generation of Pet Owners
Geared toward teaching responsible pet ownership to the next generation, TIP's lessons help students develop social - emotional skills and practical knowledge. We do this through our two-week Canine Compassion curriculum, after-school club, Sit-Stay-Read, and digital classroom.
