Volunteering: at my local animal shelter

I had volunteered for primarily the Dog sections at the shelter, than later both cats n dogs. My time volunteering at my local animal shelter was from May 6th of 2023 to mid late June of 2023, so this page serves more of an archive of the original page i had dedicated for them. As current events happening to me now with college, i tragically don't think i'll be able to come back volunteering here *sob emoji ;;*. Some may or may not have pictures and/or my written experiences with them.

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.

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.

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.

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 !!!
