As a result of the immense workload the running of our shelter requires, it is a necessity that we find volunteers to support those activities for which our shelter workers do not have the time to perform. Primarily, we require volunteers to engage in direct interaction with our animals, to assist with the care of these animals, and to help socialize the animals and get them accustomed to human touch once again. Quite often moments arise where a helping hand is of the utmost importance and necessity, and we sincerely welcome this assistance in our everyday shelter operations.
