Visiting Educators

Visiting educators

If you are interested in having HSSV employees/volunteers educate a classroom or other group about important topics such as animal care, affordable spay and neuter options for their pets, dog bite prevention, and obedience training techniques, please contact us by phone or email. In some cases, a trustworthy and highly social HSSV animal may be available to attend the event! 

Pet care information 

The Humane Society of Skagit Valley believes that pet care education is extremely important. If you need advice on a pet care issue or if you need support in improving your relationship with your family pet, please call the shelter for tips or resources. 

Staff and volunteers from the Humane Society are often involved in events around the area to inform people of all ages about animal care, spay and neuter services for their pets, dog bite prevention, and obedience training techniques.  If you know of an organization that could use our education services, give us a call! 

Obedience classes

At this time, we do not have obedience classes scheduled. If you know of a covered facility in the Skagit Valley that is available at low or no cost for regular class sessions, please let us know! We would love to provide this community education service.

School groups

We can usually welcome classes and groups to the shelter, by prearrangement, to learn more about pet care and animal welfare issues. Parent permission is required. If you would like to find out about bringing your students to the shelter for a guided tour, please call or email the office well in advance of your visit.
