HUMANE SOCIETY AGENT TRAINING

The Ohio Animal Welfare Federation offers Humane Society Agent training in compliance with OAC 109:2-15-02 using curriculum approved by the Ohio Peace Officer Training Commission. It is intended only for persons who have been approved by a county humane society to become a Humane Society Agent, other law enforcement, or others who are associated with a law enforcement agency and have a legitimate need for this information to promote animal welfare.

  2. Have that appointment approved by either the mayor of the municipal corporation or the probate judge of the county where they intend to serve; and  
  3. Comply with all other requirements provided by law.
