Every week 40 volunteers give 95 hours to pets

0001_VolunteersConsider becoming a part of our volunteer team! Whether you have a little or a lot of time, we welcome your help.

Many of the animals that come through our door have limited socialization or training. With a little love, attention and exercise, these animals become more adoptable. Plus spending time with them will put a smile on your face.
