Dog Walking
Shifts: Sunday 9-11, Monday - Friday 9am-7pm, Saturday 9-4
Training Required: Online training videos with quizzes. Upon completion, schedule an in-person proficiency training shift
Daily walks provide our dogs with needed human contact, stimulation and exercise that will ultimately help make them more adoptable. Walk around our yard, hangout in the play yards or take them on our ½ mile trail that surrounds the shelter property.
All dogs are assessed and given a behavioral color code when they come into our care. All new volunteers begin at level 1 with yellow/green coded dogs. As dog walking service hours are obtained, volunteers can earn promotions to walk level 2 and level 3 dogs.
