Summary:In her sorrow, Harris turned to the Baltimore Humane Society, a private, nonprofit organization in Reisterstown. Besides its veterinary practice and animal adoptions, the "no-kill" society offers a unique service -- pet grief groups led by a certified counselor. The society's monthly group grief sessions are held in the administration building the first Tuesday of every month at 7 p.m. The sessions are free and open to the public. Because not everyone is comfortable in a group setting, Mazan also offers individual counseling in the bereaved person's home.
