Canine Companion

Most volunteers spend the majority of their time with our dogs - supporting their wellbeing through exercise, enrichment, and companionship.
As a Canine Companion, you may:
- Take dogs out for walks (rain or shine!)
- Spend time with dogs in our outdoor yards
- Provide enrichment or simple social time
- Help dogs build confidence and comfort in the shelter setting
Our dogs vary in size, age, and temperament. Many are friendly and easygoing; others may be strong, enthusiastic, or still learning good leash manners. We’ll match you with dogs suited to your comfort and skill level - and you’ll receive guidance from staff.
