Volunteering is a commitment but it`s
also a lot of fun! I started volunteering at YWAC two years ago as a dog walker, now I am a member of Dogs Playing For Life. It’s a blast to watch the dogs playing and socializing during the DPFL playgroups.
I simply can`t think of a better way to start my weekends!
I began volunteering at Young-Williams
in 2008, right after I retired from TVA. I’ve learned so much from my colleagues about dogs and their play styles. And there is no better feeling in the world than seeing a scared dog come out of her shell and begin playing with other dogs.
I have been volunteering with Young Williams for 2 years. I come from a family of dog lovers, and we have 2 rescues at home... When I put a leash on a dog at YW he gets so excited to get to spend a few minutes outside with me!
