What are the requirements for joining Delta Society’s Pet Partners Program?
To become a member of the Delta Society and become a member of our program, follow these steps: 1) Take the Delta Society Pet Partners training class without your pet. This is usually offered as a two-day workshop from 9 AM to 5 PM or as a 6-week evening class from 7 to 9 PM. 2) Pass the Delta Pet Partners evaluation (30-minute test) with your pet.

Those who take a Pet Partners training class sponsored by HVHS Visiting Pets receive a discount on the evaluation fee, paying $10 per pet/handler team instead of the usual $25. 3) Complete the Delta Society paperwork and veterinary exam and pay your registration fee.

Those who take a Pet Partners training class and evaluation sponsored by HVHS Visiting Pets receive a discount on the two-year registration fee, which is $50 (instead of the usual $75) for a volunteer with a single animal.
