			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Spring is finally here, and activity is picking up everywhere. I think we&#8217;re all feeling more alive and ready to expand our horizons this time of year. There is an abundance of opportunities to learn everything from animal massage to Shamanic healing in the next few months; this is the longest list of classes and workshops yet.</p>
<p><strong>April </strong>is ASPCA&#8217;s Prevention of Animal Cruelty Month<br />
<strong>May 2 &#8211; 8</strong> is Be Kind to Animals Week<br />
<strong>May 16 &#8211; 22</strong> is National Dog Bite Prevention Week</p>
<p>And this one I have to mention because I would LOVE to attend (but I can&#8217;t):</p>
<p><strong>May 22</strong> &#8211; 5th Annual Loews Coronado Bay Resort Surf Dog Competition, Imperial Beach, CA. The proceeds will benefit the San Diego Police Department’s Canine Unit.</p>
<p>As always, if you know of an event that belongs on this list, please <a title="Contact" href="http://animalmassageguide.com/contact/" target="_blank">contact me</a> and I will add it.</p>
