But we tried to volunteer and were advised they didn't need any help  I said.. What?! All they seemed to want was $$ which I understand..but c'mon. Then we volunteered to help with their site.. taking GOOD pictures of the dogs.. without the bars and cages in all the pics..like they had.. and updating them on their site..cause now the dogs don't change for months at a time.
So anyhow they were NOT very helpful..but we are pursuing other ways to help with their site.. going around them and through the county.
But that would be an idea for you V you are so good with pics and internet things.. maybe you could do something on their site?? Do they have one? |
I understand that not all shelters are great or honest. I really feel proud of ours though.
One thing we are always needing is used clothes and towels...........they go by so fast. We use the rags for cleaning and the towels for grooming and keeping babies warm
