Pet Education Partnership (PEP)
|
Children taught to extend compassion and kindness towards animals
act in this manner as adults. PEP encourages this through its
curriculum.
Specifically, this is accomplished by showing children the benefits
of interaction with companion animals and teaching them how to be
responsible pet owners.
Furthermore, PEP educates students about their responsibilities
toward all animals and their environment as a whole

Teaching children about responsible pet
care and the human-animal bond is an important part of developing caring
adults. However, many educators do not have the time to develop a curriculum
on their own. Therefore, PPP has produced an innovative pet care curriculum,
Learning and Living Together: Building the Human-Animal Bond. The
lessons emphasize responsibility and empathy through relationships with
companion animals.
