On October 28th, the National Honor Society students went to the Pennington County Humane Society to tour the facilities, learn about the medical care each animal receives, learn about the animals available for adoption, and of course play with the dogs and cats!
Many of the dogs there were extremely friendly and lovable, and received a lot of attention from the students. The humane society is always in need of donations (money, toys, food, blankets), cleaning supplies, and families able to adopt pets. Please consider adopting a pet from the Pennington County Humane Society for your next family addition, or volunteering your time to spend with these lovable animals.
