Ragav Jeevanantham, Hopkinton High School senior, has recently completed his Eagle Scout service project by planning and building a set of training steps for dogs waiting for adoption at the Greyhound Friends shelter. Asked why he chose this particular project, Ragav said “I’ve been volunteering at Greyhound Friends for about two and a half years. I love dogs and feel a strong connection to them, so I wanted to provide something that could help them. Now we can teach them how to go up and down stairs, which some dogs are a little afraid of.
