Our Secondhand Hope program offers companion pet visits to Minnesota assisted living communities and other facilities. Our goal is to provide both humans and animals with comfort, socialization and companionship. Volunteers bring their personal animals, including dogs (both large and small) and cats, to participate in the visits. Each animal and its handler receives training with Secondhand Hounds staff in order to make the experience both enjoyable and safe.
you and your animal will be evaluated to see if you are a good fit for the program. If you have not filled out the interest form, please fill it out by Friday at 5pm before your evaluation.
