The PBS Documentary, Shelter Me – Second Chances, premiered in February on stations across the US. For those of you that are not familiar, this documentary follows shelter dogs selected from OC Animal Care through their training journey with the PAW (Pups and Wards) Program at Juvenile Hall.
The documentary highlights OC Animal Care staff and dogs, PAW Program trainers, Juvenile Hall staff and the youth trainers. It is a touching and uplifting documentary and something that they are very proud of. The documentary will be airing through this weekend and hopefully beyond. Please take some time to watch it and learn about this life-saving program
