Volunteering at Rocket Dog Rescue
Final Day
April 5th, 2016
So, this is it. Kept you waiting huh?
Alright that's enough of the melodrama that I so often play around with. Today was my last day in Rocket dog Rescue! Although, I wouldn't mind coming back so often just to help out. I have never volunteered for any organization in my life and this being my first experience really refreshes my views on why people do this stuff. The passion, the good cause. Volunteers are really amazing. I used to think why do people do this stuff if they don't even get paid for the work they're doing? Well I believe I understand a little better.
Although I am more of a cat person myself, I could understand not only the statistic of abused and homeless animals, but I could see it for myself. There were so many dogs, just waiting to be part of a family.
I joined this organization because I thought it would be a good, fun experience and it would help me with some knowledge of dogs, especially since I am the new owner of a gigantic husky.
This has helped me understand how work really is. It's people trying their best to do something. Honestly I have a fear of work, but this experience has eased it just a little.
As for the day... it was pretty standard. I said a see ya next time to the senior volunteers and acquaintances I met and me and my partner celebrated with some dinner.
Working ain't so bad when you're doing something you love. Thats pretty cool.
