Walks, Wiggles, and Wags!
The Center for Animal Health & Welfare is looking for caring and active volunteers to walk dogs at the Center for Animal Health & Welfare! Having volunteers walk our dogs helps them get out of their kennels for longer and lets them meet new people, which can make them more adoptable! Interested volunteers will first need to attend an orientation and complete the dog walking training.
