The Childrens’ Docent Group at the Maturango Museum, 100 E. Las Flores Ave. is very excited to, once again, bring the Guide Dogs for the Blind/Ridgecrest Puppy Raisers to the museum on Flex Friday, Jan. 31, from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. There will be several puppies with their Raisers, plus a number of ambassador dogs. In small groups, the children will have the opportunity to ask questions and learn about puppy grooming, such as teeth brushing and bathing, and important rules about food and water.
The Puppy Raisers are aware of how many children and adults want to pet the dogs, so they will guide them in learning the cardinal rule to always ask for permission from the Owner/Raiser. A story and craft session, with take-home pictures to color, will round out the program.
