I would love to walk dogs! The problem is though, in our small town of 380, not many people have doogs, and even less people would want me to walk their dog.

There is this one family that has a dog in a cage like thing outside. It is about 5 by 10 feet or so, but the dog is there ALL day and I feel so sorry for it! I have never once seen it out for a walk, but it seems like a mean dog, which may be why its locked up. The owner, I know, should definately do some serious training, but I have never seen him/her before and don't really know much about it.

There is one other dog that I know of that gets treated badly. It is the fluffiest, cutest german shepher (mix? it's quite fluffy). It seems to be groomed well, because it always looks so nice. But I have never once seen it out for a walk. (in my town, it's kind of like a neighborhood, so you see what's going on and stuff) Every time I go by the place the dog always, always runs out to you but then gets yanked back on the cord he's tied to. He'll bark and bark and I feel so sorry for him. His owners live in a shack-like house and I don't know how they afford to keep him. I think they get drunk alot and stuff =/

But back to my point, there really aren't any dogs to walk. I really want to volunteer at a shelter, but like I said before, it clashes with my rythmic gymnastic lessons (which I won't be taking next year and end in May) Also, it is 25 minutes away from where we live, so we don't go there much, and when we do, its for church, groceries or whatever. But I am going to look into it again, I just need to see if I can get the ride.
