Hello again,

I've called the shelter, and I'm going in tomorrow to speak with the manager. She has an orientation session where she answers questions and gives advice as well as pointing out any potential problems. Also she talks about the work that I will be doing.
I've wanted to volunteer for a long while, so I think I will do this. Besides, I feel I owe this shelter something, after all, they were kind enough to look after Odin before he came home with me.
I'll post again tomorrow after I've been.
I'm very excited about this, and I know it will be hard work, but very rewarding too.
Louise
