How You Can Help PAWS

The canine ear can detect sound waves at frequencies of more than 30,000 times a second. The human ear can detect sound waves vibrating at frequencies up to 20,000 times a second. This is why dog whistles work.

"The disposition of noble dogs is to be gentle with people they know and the opposite with those they don't know...How, then, can the dog be anything other than a lover of learning since it defines what's its own and what's alien."

- Plato

Education and Resources

PAWS educates the public about responsible pet ownership through public events, person-to-person contact, and educational materials. School visits are available.

You can also schedule a visit for your scout troop to tour PAWS and learn about our programs. If your Junior Girl Scout troop would like to earn the Pet Care Badge, please contact us! We have all the details planned out to meet the criteria and can also work with your troop to meet your needs.

PAWS now has a Reading Companions program! Parents can bring their children to PAWS where they can read to the wonderful cats and dogs at PAWS while learning about responsible pet ownership.

You can also hold your child's birthday party at PAWS! Our birthday parties are for children turning five to ten years old, and we can accommodate up to 20 guests.

Please call (814) 237-8722 or email education@centrecountypaws.org to request more information about any of our educational programs!
