'Date with a Dog' Program Supported by PEDIGREE Foundation
The Kentucky Humane Society (KHS) has received a $9,220 grant from PEDIGREE Foundation to help expand its “Date with a Dog” initiative, which allows trained volunteers to “check out” a shelter dog for the day.
“Date with a Dog volunteers have taken dogs out on ‘dates’ to animal-friendly businesses, walks in the park, or home to watch movies and chill on the couch,” said Kaitlyn Murray, KHS Adoptions Manager.
