A few weeks ago, my friend & I began volunteering at our local shelter. We have had so much fun. We volunteer to take the dogs outside and play with them, and socialize with the puppies.. It has been so much fun.
We have made a few shelter buddies. One of the dogs I have absolutely fell in love with. They have had him for a few weeks. He is gorgeous. I have told two employees that I hope he gets adopted, but if for some reason he doesn't. I will do anything for him. Even if that means me taking him.
One of our regular dogs that we have nicknamed Goofy was advertised in the paper today. This dog is a big dog, but he is sooo clumsy. Such a sweetheart. Everytime I go in there, I make sure I take him outside.. He is a little on the goofy side though. For example, Today I was getting him out of his pen and he fell all over his water bowl making a mess LOL.. but hes so much fun. Hes sooo sweet. so I hope he gets adopted too.
I do have to say I have one concern.. Should I be worried that I may track some disease or sickness to my dogs from the shelter? My dogs come first and I don't want to risk their health or lives for anything. When I get home, I take a shower and change clothes..soo I don't have bad doggie germs on me.. but should I be worried about that?
Anywho. here are a few pictures I snaped with my camera phone.. Not the best, but you can still see the pups..
Me and My Muffin lookalike..

These are my last few pictures.. These are of the dog I have fallen in LOVE with.. This is the one I am trying my best to get adopted and if not I told the shelter I would do anything to help the dog.. I just hope they really listened to me about that.

Hope you enjoyed..
