Pet Life
Bring a bit of home with you to Lyon College
With plenty of open space for dog-walking and many sunny windows for cat-napping, Lyon's campus can serve as a great home for your best friend. To support your pets, the College has added pet waste disposal bins to its campus and holds a pet blessing ceremony every October. The College will also offer pet obedience classes so that your furry friend can get an education too.
