These volunteers help exercise and mentally stimulate the dogs who are in our kennel. Volunteers play and walk with the dogs in the enclosed yards on our campus. Notes: Due to the size of our dogs, volunteers should be able to handle a 70-pound dog. All kennel volunteers must be 14 years and older. (Proof of age is required.) Young adults between the ages of 14 and 18 must provide a signed parental consent before beginning volunteer work.
Please note that there is currently a one to two year wait for volunteers offering to work on the weekend. For volunteers who can work on a week day there is a six to nine month wait.
Hours of volunteering:
Shifts range from one hour to four hours long. Shifts are available during the week. Requires a commitment of two hours per month.
Orientation:
Volunteers must attend an orientation session prior to their first day of volunteering.
