“We all want to loving care for our pets during this time, but don’t always know how.” Understanding more about these areas will help us become better equipped to handle this critical time for our pets and ourselves. Being aware of the resources available can be tremendously helpful and healing. Tribute video will be played at end for attendees’ pets.
This is a seated, educational, ticketed event, ideal for pet parents and pet professionals. Some presentations offer CE credits.
