Decided to go for it :)
Well I think you all know me by now. A bit all over the place, but i mean well
Im going to visit my local rescue, and volunteer some of my time (if they'll take me lol
I dont know if it will work, as im soooooooooooooooooooooo OTT when it comes to our breed. Yes, I'll proberly have a breakdown, but I need to help, practically. I cant sit by. If i dont try, I'll never know.

You're doing the right thing i wish they had shelters like that here for me to help out in, but they dont... not sure if its good or bad actually...
Re: Decided to go for it :)
Im allways thinking about them, allways talking about them. So i think its time to act on my feelings. I know I cant change it, but i can do my bit. If i can help just 1, its a start.

A rescue near me has volunteers every Wednesday to walk the dogs, I dont know why a wednesday, maybe their short of staff that day. I thought I could start with that first, and see how i cope.

Good for you!! Just keep it all in perspective, you can help but you won't be able to help them all, It can be a very heartbreaking place at times but it can also be a very rewarding experience.

Have fun with it, don't think about the situation or the dogs will feel it. I've worked in kennels (all be it boarding ones) and in my moody days the dogs reacted so yeah. Have fun x

Go for it Kelly, I'm sure any rescue centre would be more than grateful for the extra helping hands you could provide. You will be making a huge difference to the lives of dogs in shelter, well done for having a go.

Re: Decided to go for it :)
I start next Wednesday .
I'm unable to help out with cleaning and caring as it's a private Boarding Kennels. The staff take care of the dogs daily care needs. The rescue workers walk all the dogs every Wednesday morning. So Im offically a "dog Walker". She said because Im keen on bullbreeds, I can walk the staffy's. I will get loads of pic's
