Centre County PAWS offers a variety of programs for children to learn about responsible pet ownership and engage with the animals in our shelter. From summer programs to enrichment ideas and craft projects for a rainy day, there are plenty of opportunities to help our animals no matter how old you are!
Learn With Furry Friends
