I hope I can handle it.
I'll be volunteering at the local Humane Society. I've alreaady done the orientation, and apparently now I can go there whenever I want and decide to do whatever I want. I'm working every day until next Thursday, but since I have class that day, I hope I can volunteer Friday.
I'm doing this for several reasons, but a main one is in memory of Lady. We adopted her from a different Humane Society, but I remember going there and seeing her in her cage (she was a 5 month old puppy). It was after Christmas, and they only had 2 dogs left, and she was due to be euthanized the next day. My sister and I were 8 years old, and had just gone through getting a sweet dog for Christmas (Trixie) only to have her accidentally run outside and get hit by a truck on New Year's Eve.
Lady's tail started wagging as soon as she saw us. She was so excited to meet us that she peed in 2 rooms.
She had so many problems later on that most people probably would have dumped.
I just want to help some animals get comfort, love, and attention especially if it's the only time in their lives.
