Step 1
If you are not looking to adopt a pet, perhaps you would be interested in joining the vast group of volunteers who help make this animal shelter the pet paradise that it is! They will train you to help in whatever field you prefer whether it's walking dogs for exercise (a great way for you to exercise too!) or bathing animals or helping to organize one of their many fund raising events.

Step 2
The Animal Welfare Society also has a wonderful Fostering Program that allows trained volunteers to take kittens or puppies home for extra special care until they are old enough to be adopted out. They also need Foster parents for pets who need medical attention while recuperating from an illness or injury. If you think you would make a good Foster parent for a pet please give the shelter a call!
