Youth and Paws at Berry Elementary

Barrio Dogs is especially proud of the progress we have made with our Youth and Paws (YAP) program this year. We would like to share a few photos from our visits to Berry Elementary in Houston between November 28, 2011 and December 9, 2011.

During the holiday season, please think about our youth and donate to our Barrio Dogs Amazon Wish List so children like these can benefit. Unfortunately, Barrio Dogs is spending nearly all its available budget on veterinary and boarding costs for rescued dogs, leaving only a portion of funds available for the educational programs at the heart of Barrio Dogs' mission.

We look forward to our Youth and Paws (YAP) program reaching even more schools and children in 2012. If you are interested in volunteering or donating, please email susan@barriodogs.org.

Barrio Dogs is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit established in 2010 for the purpose of educating, empowering and transforming the East End by raising awareness and educating the community about proper animal care, leash and tethering laws, the importance of reporting animal neglect and abuse and above all, promoting and when possible paying for spay and neuter of dogs. Comprised completely of volunteers, Barrio Dogs’ approach to helping the East End’s homeless and mistreated animals has resonated with many people, not just dog lovers.
