We need  more volunteers to walk dogs and spend time with the animals at the
shelter.  Many dogs are housebroken, but don't even get out once a day. Other
dogs could  become housebroken if they were taken out each day. A form is used
to keep track  of which dogs have been out each day. We would like volunteers to
schedule their  time so there are enough volunteers each day. Volunteer manuals
are available at  the shelter and online. It is helpful if you can read the
volunteer and shelter  help manuals before volunteering. New volunteers need to
schedule an orientation  and/or be matched with an experienced
volunteer.

We have  started an online volunteer group to help volunteers communicate with each other  and keep informed of shelter needs. It includes a message board, links to other  sites, photos, volunteer manuals and other files to download, and photos.
You  will need to complete a short information email before being approved for
the  group.

         

You  must be 18 or over to fill out an online application or join the online
volunteer group. Volunteers under 18 must come to shelter with parent or
guardian to complete volunteer application and sign liability form. All
volunteers under 18 must have a parent or guardian with them when volunteering
at the shelter. Parents or guardians would need to attend orientation and
training when required for certain activities. We hope to have more volunteer
opportunities for youth in the future.

If you  are interested in helping, please fill out one of our online volunteer
applications!!! If you are in another state but want to help w/ transporting
animals to rescue & forever homes, please fill one out!
