As part of our commitment to education and engagement, Pet Partners offers a variety of webinars for volunteers, pet owners, and the general public. Session registration is generally available on our website 4–6 weeks in advance of the event, though topics with more urgent focus may be scheduled on shorter notice. Webinars feature live presentations with question/answer opportunities. Webinars are free but you must register to reserve a space.
Pet Partners is pleased to offer live interactive educational sessions via Facebook! Pet Partners staff and expert guests will present live sessions on the Pet Partners Facebook page.
