Good Dog Rewards, a new program offered by Amity Animal Rescue Fund, Inc. hopes to promote dog training classes for rescued canines. The program is open to all residents of Bethany, Orange and Woodbridge who have adopted a companion canine and graduate from an upcoming dog obedience class between April 1 to September 30. Those qualifying will receive a $50 Good Dog Reward from AARF.
AARF’s belief is that a Good Dog with manners makes a good companion. Many dogs are surrendered to shelters because of issues like jumping, barking or poor housetraining. Basic obedience classes educate owners on how to prevent these common problems. Trained canines make better family pets. If the dog is ever surrendered to a shelter, it is often the most adoptable. Classes, whether puppy kindergarten, therapy dog certification or the fast growing sport of agility, strengthen the bond between dog and their human companion.
Informational flyers can be found in the Town Clerks office at all three Town Halls. Applications can be obtained by emailing amityarf@yahoo.com or calling 203-389-1996. The number of applications is limited so please apply early.
