Participate in our Educational Programs

The Toledo Humane Society believes that respect for living things, including animals and people, begins with education. The THS Education Department offers a variety of single and multi-day programs designed to appeal to different age groups and interests. To accommodate the busy schedules of students, we offer educational opportunities after school and on Saturdays. Costs will vary from program to program.

Microchipping Your Pet

The Toledo Humane Society offers engraved owner ID tags for purchase, as well as microchip implantation by appointment. The cost of a microchip is $25.00 and includes the activation of the microchip through 24PetWatch. A microchip is a permanent ID tag that your pet will never lose. The microchip itself has no internal energy source, so it will last the life of your pet.
