Teacher Grant Program Now Accepting Applications
The Pet Care Trust's (http://www.petsintheclassroom.org/about)Pets in the Classroom program (http://www.petsintheclassroom.org/) is now accepting grant applications for the 2013-2014 school year. Pre-Kindergarten through 8th grade teachers in both private and public schools who desire to introduce a pet into the classroom or already have a pet in the classroom are welcome to apply.
Many school teachers have very limited resources for the support of classroom animals, which is why the Pet Care Trust believes in supporting teachers with this educational grants program. Through the Pets in the Classroom program, teachers can obtain a grant for the purchase of new pets, pet environments or pet food and supplies for existing classroom pets. Teachers can apply for a direct, no-hassle grant through the Pets in the Classroom website (www.PetsintheClassroom.org). The program offers 7 different types of grants, giving each teacher the opportunity to choose which grant is right for him or her. Grant options (http://www.petsintheclassroom.org/grant-app/choose-a-grant/) include:
· Rebate Grant in the amounts of $100 (for small animal or birds) or $150 (for reptiles or fish) for purchases at any pet store;
· Sustaining Grant in the amount of $50 to maintain an existing classroom pet;
· Petco Grant, which provides coupons for the live animal, pet habitat and supplies purchased at Petco;
· Petsmart Grant, which provides coupons for the live animal, pet habitat and supplies purchased at Petsmart; and
· Pet Supermarket Grant, which provides coupons for live animal and pet supplies purchased at Pet Supermarket.
New for 2013-14:
· Pet Supplies Plus Grant, which provides coupons for live animal and supplies purchased at Pet Supplies Plus Stores, and
· Petland Discounts Grant, which provides coupons for live animal and supplies purchased at Petland Discounts Stores.
The grant program began in 2010 and has awarded 22,793 grants to teachers through the 2012-2013 school year. With a goal of introducing 5 million children in 100,000 classrooms to pets and the benefits they provide, the Trust hopes that the 2013-2014 school year will see a large number of grant applicants.
Steven T. King, Executive Director of the Pet Care Trust, commented, "The newly redesigned Pets in the Classroom website makes it easier than ever for teachers to apply for a grant and to find the resources they may need to select the right pet for their classroom."
The Pets in the Classroom grant program benefits students by teaching them responsible, long-term pet care at an early age and providing the psychological and developmental benefits associated with the human-animal bond. Studies have shown that caring for pets has a positive effect on children, improving school attendance and teaching children responsibility, as well as encouraging nurturing and building self esteem.

The First Dog Boarding and Training Facility in the Country
With temperatures hitting their summer highs, leaving a pet at home can make owners worrisome. Hollywood Dog Training School has the cooling mist systems and shade trees to keep dogs cool.
During the summer, it’s important for dog owners to keep their pets cool. That’s why America’s longest-standing boarding facility has equipped its grounds with 200 high pressure misters throughout their spacious grounds. Started in 1927, Hollywood Dog Training School has worked with countless dogs, and learned the best way to care for them. Pets at the dog boarding facility can be kept cool while their owners are at work or on vacation.
The large open facility is thoroughly covered with 20 expansive trees, so dogs can stay in the shade. The program keeps dogs and humans comfortable during dog training and obedience training classes. As the name suggests, Hollywood Dog Training School offers dog boarding and training for dogs in the greater Los Angeles area and suburbs. The dog training staff averages 15 years of experience and works with 30 to 50 dogs a day. This level of experience, dog-to-trainer ratio, and comfortable surroundings creates an easy environment for dogs to learn.
The Los Angeles Dog Boarding facility has also grown to include cat boarding as well. Owner Rick Karl explained how the addition of Kitty City came about, “People would drop off their dogs and ask if we knew any places where they could take their cats. Today there is even an entire building dedicated to cats; soundproofed so the cats aren’t bothered by the dogs.”
For the past 85+ years, Hollywood Dog Training School has been a leader in dog boarding and training. In that time they have created an environment where dogs and cats can be comfortable away from home. The cooling mist system is just the latest in their list of innovations. More information about pet boarding and training services can be found at www.hollywooddogtrainingschool.com

Alice Birney Elementary Garden Program sponsorship
One San Diego company is “digging in” to more than just real estate: Tomea, Inc. Consulting, a comprehensive commercial and residential real estate and consulting agency, announced its sponsorship of San Diego’s Alice Birney Elementary School’s Garden Program for 2013, kicking off on March 1st.
Tomea, Inc., situated in San Diego’s Banker’s Hill, will provide funding to Alice Birney Elementary School’s Garden Program in the winter and spring months; for total of 33 weeks out of the school year. The funds will enable one lower grade (K-3) and one upper grade (4 & 5) to actively participate in the program.
Like many schools, Alice Birney fell victim to the State’s ongoing, structural funding problems, threatening the school’s ability to continue its fun & educational Garden Program.
“We knew we wanted to give back to a local school, but we were overjoyed to see that our contribution would go to a program that is so unique and special to both the students and teachers,” said Melania Mirzakhanian, Director of Operations at Tomea, Inc. Consulting. “After visiting the Alice Birney campus to see and hear for ourselves how important the Garden Program is to the students, we’re looking forward to watching how the garden, and the students, progress over the next year. This goes hand in hand with our Green Building efforts at Tomea,, Inc.”
Alice Birney Elementary is recognized as an International Studies Magnet school. Through structured & guided inquiry, technologically enhanced classrooms, and special classes, the school provides a wide range of learning experiences to students, grades K – 5. In the garden, students learn about and grow a variety of plants, fruits and vegetables, depending on the season, and utilize them in their very own cafeteria. The program also incorporates composting as a valuable soil amendment that provides nutrients to plants, soil stability, erosion control and more.
“Our Garden Program is a way to give students a different, hands-on way to learn about responsibility, hard work and the environment, outside of the classroom,” said Amanda Hammond-Williams, Principal at Alice Birney Elementary. “Unfortunately, since it is one of the add-ons to our regular curriculum, this program is one of the first things to get cut when the budget is low. It’s sponsors like Tomea, Inc. that allow us to enrich our students’ overall learning experience with lessons and skills that cannot be taught in the classroom.”
Tomea, Inc. will continue working with the PTA and Friends of Alice Birney Foundation to carryout the sponsorship and see out the sponsorship. Alice Birney Elementary School is located at 4345 Campus Ave. in San Diego, just a few miles from Tomea, Inc., and is noted for having a highly diverse student body.

“Totem Cat: Spirit of the Northwest” is the show theme for this year’s event.
This unique but fun theme may have some individuals wondering, what is a totem cat?
Northwest Native Americans have long believed in the power of animal totems, which has been reflected in their culture for centuries. It is a symbolic object that can be used by a person to his/her benefit. The totem has enabled the Northwest Native Americans to get in touch with the qualities of the animal honored. The right animal spirit guide can promote a connection with nature.
This year’s annual show will have attendees and our pur-fect furry friends feeling grounded and balanced with the totem cat spirit theme! Plus, meet the vendors. This is a great place to shop and get all you need for your furry friends at home. Vendors include The Cat Ball, The Collectable Cat, Custom Cat Structures, Community Cat Coalition Rescue Group, Eye-Deas Fantasy Cat Art, Helping Hands Veterinary Clinic, Kitty Cat Litter, Lost in Time Collectables, Power Paw Products, Solid Rock Memorials and The Whole Cat and Kaboodle. This show would not be possible without the help of our amazing show sponsors, a huge thanks to Sturdi Products, for traveling pets and their people, Huber’s Trophies & Awards, Royal Canin and SM Show Supplies. Hospitality Sponsors include the Napoleonlane/Munchkinlane Cattery and the TICA Chartreux Breed Group. Additional Show Information: http://www.meetthecats.org/.
