Pet Therapist
Pooper
Scoopers
We
have a nice bunch of doggies getting fed regularly with little digestives systems
all working pretty darn good. Doggie-do is produced & proudly delivered on
a seriously regular basis. ( We give them lots of drinking water too.) Reasons
why we need scoopers...
1) Skipper loves to slip & slide in it ... & then climb up in our laps.
2) The fumes alone might kill gardens & melt paint right off the trucks.
3) Bugs, disease & unsanitary conditions probably should be considered too
...
General
handyperson
The kennel is so maintenance intensive we are
always in need of cleaners & repairs all over the place. We are certainly not
fancy around here since every nickel goes into doggie care, but we work very
hard to keep the environment clean and safe & if you can use a hammer, screwdriver
or have any electrical skills, we could really use a helping hand. Can you paint,
plaster, do wood work on fences & gates?
Animal
Trainer
Someone who can spend time at the sanctuary teaching our
dogs basic commands and obedience training. Nothing beats a well behaved dog!
Veterinarian
We desperately need a practical minded Veterinarian who
is willing to make house calls once or twice a month here to the sanctuary.
It's a major hardship to bundle up & haul 20 separate dogs over to another
location simply for shots & general care. If
we were blessed with a Veterinarian angel who could make house calls to the
sanctuary, of course we're more than willing to pay & would be ever grateful.
(We'd also like to feature our Sanctuary Vet here on our website.)
Doggie
Wranglers needed
Folks who love dogs & can pet them, brush them,
walk them, or just hang out with the shy ones to help them socialize. Anyone from age 14 to 100 who can love a dog is welcome.
Children under l4 must have consent & supervision of a parent or guardian.
This job also includes pooper scooping.
Kennel
cleaning
Cleaning doggie houses, washing and replacing beds. This
is a job for those not afraid of hot water, bleach & pinesol. We keep our
doggies and their living spaces clean and that's a demanding chore. We could
use help in this area.
Could
you sew & tack little bedding pads together?
We need people to cut up blankets and comforters &
tack then together to make little doggie sleeping pads.We
have the materials and need you to cut them up into bedding approximately 3'x3'
and 2'x2' (Of course, a few inches either way won't matter.) We need them fluffy
and tacked together so we can wash & dry them faster & easier.
Bug
those friends and neighbors: for older polyester comforters that you can fold
into quarters & tack together to make softer fluffier washable bedding for
these doggies to snuggle on inside their kennels.
Sign
painter who could make nice yard signs for the reception
area & yards.
Drivers
We need drivers who can drive us to our Vet visits
& help bust death-row inmates outta jail on rescue pickups. There are dogs
who can be saved if only there are folks available with cars to go pick them
up. We need on-call drivers and a dispatcher volunteer to help organize rescue
pickups & vet trips.
