OUT&ABOUT A WEEKLY SELECTION OF PHOTOS COMPASSIONATE CANINES
THURSDAY, JAN. 21 | GLACIER HIGH SCHOOL
Nothing relieves stress like the comfort of man’s best friend. Students at Glacier High School hosted the Paws to De-Stress event during nals week with Compassionate K-9. Small groups of students spent a few minutes before school and during lunch playing with and petting Stryker and Brenner, both Belgian Shepherds. The Gla- cier French and Spanish Clubs won a grant from the Kalispell Education Foundation last fall, and hosted a hot chocolate bar during nals week. Handlers with Compassionate K-9’s volunteered their time with the dogs.
