The Bronze Award is a Girl Scout project, combining teamwork and observing our surroundings.\u00a0 For our Bronze Award, we wanted to help animals here in Germany. We learned about being good pet owners and made toys for both the Homberg Tierheim and Paws Abroad.<\/p>\n<p>Pets sometimes have a rough time, especially in military families, and we wanted to figure out how we can help. Military member\u2019s pets are sometimes abandoned, either before a PCS or when they deploy. This is something that affects all of us.<\/p>\n<p>From our first meeting, we knew we wanted to help pets. The Bronze Award is led by us.\u00a0 That means we all had to decide our goal and be able to communicate together. We have to put in at least 20 hours each to earn it, which means we put in over 240 hours from our troop!<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, March 18, we spent nine hours together learning all about pets. We made pet first aid kits, and learned how to properly care for the pets we have or want.<\/p>\n<p>Then, we had Courtney from Courtney\u2019s Barkery come and teach us about her pet treat business. Our girls learned about what kind of treats are safe for pets, and what it takes to own a small business. The girls all made their our own business plan, and almost all of them were about pets. We want to open them now!<\/p>\n<p>Katie with Paws Abroad came to talk to us about the five pet freedoms. They need freedom from hunger, discomfort, pain, fear, and the freedom to do what they want! She taught us how to be responsible pet owners. Most of us either have or want pets, so this will help us out a lot.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was important to learn how to take care of pets\u2026 If we don\u2019t, they might feel pain or not get the right care and they can\u2019t speak for themselves or feed themselves,\u201d said Reagan, a girl scout in our troop.<\/p>\n<p>We finished the day by making dog and cat toys. We used some of the money we raised from cookie sales to do this. Half of us did not know how to braid, so we learned how to by making braided rope dog toys. We had a lot of fun making those and made almost 50 of them. Then, we used an old blanket to make catnip filled cat toys. Those were a lot harder, and took a lot more work, so we made 20. They were worth it in the end though, and we learned new skills! We hope the pets have fun with them.<\/p>\n<p>When talking about using our cookie money for the toys, Vanessa from our troop said, \u201cIt is a better feeling to give something than to receive something.\u201d We all agree!<\/p>\n<p>We now know what is needed before we adopt a pet, and what we need to think about. We all definitely still want pets, but know now the responsibility we have to the pets we adopt. You cannot just adopt a pet and rehome it afterwards. It is a lifelong commitment. The pet will move with us, travel with us, and be a part of our family! We hope to share this with our military family, and have them think before adopting.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/product\/shelter-helper-fun-patch\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-5681 size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/patch-program-shelter-helper-250x252-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Bronze Award: Helping Pets Get Adopted\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/patch-program-shelter-helper-250x252-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/girl-scout-leader\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/patch-program-shelter-helper-250x252.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/makingfriends.com\/product\/shelter-helper-fun-patch\/\">Shelter Helper<\/a><\/strong> fun patch is perfect for girls who have completed a service project with their local animal shelter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class='dropshadowboxes-container dropshadowboxes-center ' style='width:100%;'>\r\n                            <div class='dropshadowboxes-drop-shadow dropshadowboxes-rounded-corners dropshadowboxes-inside-and-outside-shadow dropshadowboxes-lifted-both dropshadowboxes-effect-default' style='width:850px; border: 1px solid #dddddd; height:; background-color:#ffffff;    '>\r\n                            <\/p>\n<div class=\"moz-forward-container\">\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Aimee Beck is a Junior Girl Scout leader overseas.
