The Humane Society of Harris County Helping Hounds Project is a program built on the premise that dogs and people together can become the catalyst for a positive change in each other’s lives. Shelter dogs are delivered to the Muscogee County Youth Development Campus to participate in Helping Hounds. Each dog is partnered with a youth offender. Each youth is responsible for the daily care and training of their canine companion. By the end of the ten-week period each dog will leave ready to be a wonderful family member. The youth at the end of their stay will re-enter their community with a compassion, empathy and respect for all living beings. Dogs are trained to be companion, service and working dogs. The most telling statistic as to the success of these programs with youth offenders is that the recidivism rate for those who complete these programs is 0%. That is no youth go on to be repeat offenders, NONE! To keep this program going, THEY NEED OUR HELP! For more information visit http://www.humanesocietyofharriscounty.org/HelpingHounds.aspx.
