WCAC Summer Camp: Paw-sitive Adventures with the Kids
Our participation in the Williamson County Animal Center (WCAC) Summer Camp was a wonderful and enriching experience! We had the pleasure of presenting some of our service dogs in training to the campers, providing them with an up-close look at the incredible work these dogs do. The kids were enthusiastic and engaged, eagerly asking questions and interacting with our dogs, making it a truly interactive and educational session.
Teaching the younger generation about the importance of service dogs and service dogs in training and the roles they play in assisting individuals with disabilities was incredibly rewarding. The campers left with a better understanding and appreciation of these amazing animals, and we left with hearts full of joy from the positive interactions and connections made.
