Thanks.

Well, when I'm old enough and have a car (a lot of the volunteer jobs at the Humane Society require you be 16 and have a car to transport, etc.) I am definately going to volunteer. I wouldn't mind being a dog walker:

Position Title: Volunteer - Dog Walker
When Needed: Any days Monday through Saturday between the hours of 8:30 and 4:30.
Position
Responsibilities: Walk Shelter dogs for exercise and fresh air.

Note: Some dogs' personality is not known when they come into Shelter. Caution needs to be taken when handling these dogs. Highly suggested that a certain amount of maturity is needed. Not recommend walking two dogs together whose personality is unknown.


Minimum Age: 16 - Must have parental permission slip signed if under the age of 18.
You need:
Benefit:

Dogs get fresh air, human contact and exercise.
That would have to be a summer volunteer job though, I have school from 8-3.

Position Title: Volunteer - Animal Caretaker
When Needed: Any days Monday through Saturday between the hours of 8:30 and 4:30.
Position
Responsibilities: Cut toenails, clean ears, brush, comb and bath animals.

Minimum Age: 16 - Must have parental permission slip signed if under the age of 18.
You need:
Benefit:

Help the animals look and feel their very best to potential adopters. Animals will be healthier and happier prepare animals going to their new home. Prefer some experience handling animals. Some animals' disposition are questionable.
That's the job I'D prefer.

I told my parents about it and my mom's like, "You don't get PAID you know."

It makes me sick how people don't think it's worth it if you don't get paid for it. I tutor at the elementary school and I'd do it even if I DIDN'T get paid. I only get at the most $34 every two weeks. Honestly, I could care less if they stopped making it a paying job.
