SPCA of Texas hosts Pet Grief Counseling Group

WHAT: The SPCA of Texas’s Pet Grief Counseling Program, an innovative
and dynamic program designed to help those who are grieving the loss of
a beloved companion animal.

Diane Pomerance, Ph.D., a certified Grief Recovery Specialist and SPCA
volunteer, along with other trained volunteers, administers a program
incorporating telephone counseling and one-on-one and group guidance in
a safe and supportive environment.

Free and open to the public, the SPCA’s Pet Grief Counseling Program
meets at 1 p.m., usually on the first Saturday of every month at the
SPCA’s Dealey Animal Care Center.

WHERE: SPCA of Texas, 362 S. Industrial Blvd., Dallas, TX; Location:
Second floor conference room

WHEN: first Saturdays, at 1 p.m.

WHY: It can be difficult for most of us to openly discuss loss of any
kind, and even more uncomfortable to discuss the loss of a pet. Until
now, there has been little opportunity for grieving pet owners to
express and recover from their grief.MORE
