i volunteer... for animals.

I love animals. Any kind, especially dogs.

This is why I volunteer at Project Pet.

Their mission is to save and help animals in kill-shelters around the Columbia, SC area. The non-profit agency rescues as many dogs and cats as the shelter can hold or they can find foster families for. I feel the need to help any helpless animal that can't escape their circumstances.

Since I have two miniature dachshunds, I can't take on another animal (my boyfriend says so), so I volunteer as my way to give back to neglected, amazing creatures.

Today we bagged loads of dog food and cat food for 2 1/2 hours that will be given to families that can't afford to properly take care of their animals, but they don't want to send them to a pound (and we don't want to see the pups or cats in the pounds aka kill-shelters, either). 

It feels great to help furry little creatures. :)
