05062023 was the day i started volunteering at my local shelter, i cannot say much as im still new. However, what i can say is that it has been changing me physically, emotionally, and mentally. 6 months from now, i will tell my full experience as a volunteer.

Below are the dogs that i've worked with since 05062023 and onward. New dogs will be added with every shift i do (max of 3 days (Saturdays and/or Wednesdays) per month), some may have photos, bios, or both
On 06202023, i completed my training to become a Cat volunteer at the shelter ! This means you'll start seeing cats pop up on the list
🪸 = Favorite
🐠 = Adopted

A-C

🐠 Abby

Abby was very skittish and was pacing around in the play yards since she had just arrived (On 05062023) at the shelter as a surrender. I only spent 5 minutes with her because at that time i wasnt sure why she acted that way. Later that day her temperment was a lot better and she was adopted on the same day.

🐠 Cubby

D-F

🐠 Dexom

🐠 Doug

🐠 Eevee

Eevee was really laid back when i hanged out with her. When a dog would come around on the other side, she would get excited to see the dog, i tried encouraging her to play but it seemed she wasnt interested on that day (05102023). I think she was adopted on the following day.

🪸🐠 Fenwick

Fenwick was the brother of one of my favorite dogs that i dealt with, who we will call Cody since he did not have a name at that time. Out of the two brothers, Fenwick was laid back than his brother (until he took a huge shit and got the after-poop zoomies). Other than that was really it ! really chill dude really happy he got adopted.

G-I

🪸🐠 Gumbo

Gumbo was the sweetest pit i've met so far as a volunteer. He was found a stray but i have a theory, from how Gumbo behaved towards me he must have been left abandoned somewhere and was found days later alone. In the play yard i would sit down on the turf and he would come running up to me, giving me kisses. On 05102023, i took him on a Lake Walk and on that day he wore an e-collar because he had been neutured recently, throughout the walk he would throw dirt in the air with his e-collar. There was also a demolition happening in front of the shelter that was also next to the lake (it was a whole different shelter that was runned by someone else, the building caught fire a couple-ish years ago). There were moments in the walk we had to stop so he can calm himself down, overall he was the sweetest and goodest pitty i met and i wished i had the chance to adopt him.

🐠 Henney

Lucky

M-O

🐠 Nala

Nala was a senior German Shepard that had lost two toes in her front right paw and had many strange growths under her belly that i honestly thought she was a boy from how they looked. She would get excited when officers past by the play yard, he also really loved water !!!

Oliver
