Tips

Donate money
Your donation can make a world of difference for animals in need.
Donate supplies
Shelters are always in need of blankets, food, toys, leashes, and cleaning supplies.
Volunteer time
Spend time with the dogs, helping them to socialize, which can increase their chances of being adopted.
Foster a dog
Provide a temporary home for a dog while the shelter finds a permanent family!
Adopt a dog
Consider adopting a dog from a local shelter (instead of buying them from a store or breeder).
Spread awareness
Share posts about adoptable dogs, events, and shelter needs on your social media platforms.
Donate your skills
If you’re a photographer, you can offer to take professional photos of adoptable dogs to help them find homes!
