Dog Care Merit Badge Clinic
Milwaukee Campus

Calling all Scouts!

The Boy Scouts of America and the Wisconsin Humane Society have teamed up to offer this fun and informative clinic to work on the requirements needed to earn the Dog Care Merit Badge and have a howlin’ good time! Many Scouts are able to get their blue cards completed by the end of the clinic.

The fee for this four-hour clinic is $25 per Scout. 

Due to space restrictions, we ask that adults attend with their scouts only if necessary. Please contact us you need to attend.

Important information:
There are ten requirements for this badge, eight of which can be signed off in the workshop that day.

Due to the requirements of #4 and #5, you must complete these on your own. If you do #4 and #5 prior to the workshop and bring your documentation (including any photos, videos, logs) with you on the day of the workshop, we can sign off on everything that day and you are done! You can complete these requirements after the clinic as well and coordinate with the Merit Badge Counselor to get your blue card signed. 

Although you are not required to have a dog to attend this workshop, you must have the ability to care for one to complete requirement #4 and #5. Scouts whose families are considering adopting a dog may want to attend to learn more about the responsibilities and care required. Scouts can then complete the last two requirements in the future when they have officially added a canine family member to their pack.
