" Through many births I have wandered on and on, Searching for, but never finding, The builder of this house." - Unattributed [DAY 7]

Volunteering at Rocket Dog Rescue


February 7th, 2016

It's hot. My partner and I left at around 2PM, and we took the bus over, it was a long and relaxing bus ride. The bus went basically everywhere and we got a beautiful view of the coast as we passed by it. We walked over to the event and the crowd was huge.

Immediately the senior volunteers noticed us and unlike the other days, there were not enough volunteers so many dogs needed attention. We were switched around many times, introducing foster parents and potential adopters, as well as helping with the front desk.

A flurry of different dogs kept me on my toes. There was no dog un-watched.
It has been awhile since I last went to the events, so there were many new and young fresh faces that needed to be met.

There were many students doing things for their capstone, and many young kids who like to spend time with the dogs.
The senior volunteers seemed to appreciate me and my partner's work. We're technically "veteran" volunteers now.

Today's Hours: 3
Total Hours: 22
