Volunteer Programs Currently Suspended Due to COVID-19
Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the shelter. At this time we have suspended regular volunteer programs (including Doggy Day Out), and are not accepting new volunteers. We apologize for any inconvenience, but this is the safest option for our staff and citizens. At this time, it is unlikely this policy will change for the Fall 2020 semester.
