Just because a rescue lists "Chicago" as their town doesn't necessarily mean they only have members in Chicago. For example, YHR now has members all over in many states and they are listed as TX. YTNR is listed as (I believe) IN and they have members all over the country as well. |
yes i have looked into it, ive also asked other people about it before i got my two newbies..there is a shelter in Alexandria, LA(45min drv) that i visited alot looking for a baby to adopt, frequent customer at petsmart for the same reason when i realized i wanted a sis/bro for my cosmo. dont get me wrong, there were volunteer groups in Alexandria, but no dog social groups and thats what i am looking for. my hubby works offshore, so im home daily, when i am at work i have no choice but to leave my babies at home, but when im off, i cant leave them to volunteer somewhere where they arent allowed to attend..they go everywhere i go, except work. if i go pay bills, run errans, they r there, if my teenagers arent home..all of my off time is spent with them, i would be happy to volunteer anywhere if they are allowed, but i cant if they cant. i will google YTNR, i have never heard of it, but every/any info will help..thx.
