Priority Total Pet Care
To support ARF’s mission, Priority® donates funds and healthy meals from its complete line of pet products.
 

The Learning Center is the first interactive museum ever connected to a private animal adoption center. Through hands on directed play, children learn how to care for animals.

They "adopt" a plush toy dog or cat which they take to the pint-sized veterinary office before going to the miniature store to select the appropriate supplies for their new pet.

Only at ARF can they Walk in my Paws® on a creative stage where children will experience what it is like to be a dog or a cat in a human world.

ARF offers a 1 ½ hour, docent-led program designed to teach children about the responsibilities of pet ownership and how to treat animals humanely. Each group receives age-appropriate lessons and experiences. It is open to children of all ages. It's a perfect field trip for school groups or Scouts. The fee is $10 per child.

To schedule a Learning Center Program, call at 925.296.3176 or email LearningCenter@arf.net.
