Meeting for Veterans Interested in Receiving a Companion Dog

Informational meeting for veterans who are interested in receiving a rescue dog. Veteran Companion Animal Services (VCAS) is a non-profit which gives rescue dogs to veterans for companionship. VCAS covers the expenses of the dog, placement supplies, the first year of food and veterinary care, and seven weeks of basic training. Veterans are often matched with a dog within 2-4 months. This meeting fulfills the in person meeting requirement. The meeting is being held at the Delaware Entrepreneurial Center next to Ohio Wesleyan University's Art Museum. Parking is available at the meters right outside the building (free on weekends) and in the Delaware Public Parking Lot on Spring St . For more information, please call 614-918-8221, email [email protected], or go to our website vcascharity.org. Follow VCAS on Facebook and Instagram.
