The place for pets, and their owners

Sweet kids make sweets for shelter dogs

Thanks to Joanne Colangelo from the Putnam Humane Society for sharing this tidbit.

After reading the book “Shiloh,” about an abused dog, students in Stefanie Capone’s sixth-grade class at North Salem Middle/High School wanted to know more about dogs. Colangelo visited the class to discuss homeless animals and what the shelter does to help them. They viewed the shelter’s Web site and students made dog treats for the shelter animals.

Pictured here with their treats are, from left in rear, Capone, Anthony Danza, Mark Petronuto, Jack Gibb and teacher assistant Linley Pullem; and front, Lea Monaghan and Caitlin Robson.
