Our Programs

  • Our beginning program is designed to gently introduce the tenets of companion animal care and respect to the youngest students. Through an interactive storytelling lesson utilizing a humane education picture book, students will engage their feelings of compassion for animals by exercising their empathy and participating in instructor-led discussion and reflection. 30-35 minutes

  • Students will exercise their skills in reading body language in both people and animals. We will discuss cat and dog safety and students’ experiences with the animals in their own lives. Through conversation and student response we will help students to understand the emotional lives of companion animals in order to stay safe in our interactions with them, and to be respectful to their feelings at any given moment. program consists of 2 -30 minute sessions for each grade level

  • St. Hubert’s is more than just animal adoptions! Learn about all of the programs and services offered by St. Hubert’s that help both people and their pets, and get some ideas as to how you can get involved in making a difference in the lives of shelter animals. 30-45 minutes

  • Students will learn about age appropriate animal related issues that we work with at St. Hubert’s as well as abroad in animal welfare including spay and neuter programs, animal adoption and rehoming, animal emergencies, and treating animals in the entertainment and food industry with respect. Students will learn about the emotional lives of non-human animals and the meaning of being an agent of positive change for both people and animals. 40-45 minutes
