Volunteers are a pertinent part of our day to day operations! Its good for the volunteers as well! Heres why Marie volunteers: After having ShiTzus for 23 years straight, I found something very special to me, now missing from my life. I saw an article for ARC and decided I wanted to volunteer my one free day a week, spending time with these homeless animals. I always come home from the shelter in heightened state of accomplishment. Covered with dirt and sticky with dog kisses. They are all looking for one thing, human love. After walking a dog I sit on the bench, just for huggin time. Sometimes it takes several walks before they warm up to eye contact, but when they do, it seems to change their personality, and they look forward to these few minutes at the end of their walk. I get my dog fix for the week and they get another person to make them feel special.
