Take a Shelter Dog On a Date

There were 41 dog dates the week of Valentine’s Day when APA started the unique enrichment program, which provided hours and hours of time out of the shelter for dogs that really needed it. Zev even got adopted after his date went so well.

Because of the program’s success, APA Olivette will start offering dog dates daily.
