Free classes are offered by Animal Friends every month to assist parents in their preparations to bring home baby.
Dog trainer Mary Papik has heard many horrific stories of newborn babies being seriously injured or killed by a family pet. Most times, those cases have involved a pit bull, Doberman, Husky, Akita, or another large dog breed considered by some to be aggressive — but not always. “We’ve even heard of Yorkies mauling kids in car seats,” said Papik, who with her husband Ron teaches classes on newborn and pet safety at Animal Friends. The shelter in Ohio Township offers those free “ Baby-Ready Pets” safety workshops every month to assist parents in making those preparations. Its next open class is scheduled for March 21.

In a game touted as a battle between two teams that like to "air it out" on the field, the Seneca Valley Raiders easily deflated the McKeesport Tigers Friday with a 47-14 score.
