Transporters

​

We rely on volunteers to help us save dogs from shelters both locally and outside the Richmond area, or possibly to move a dog to another location from our area. Transporters assist with driving crated dogs. Sometimes a CARE vehicle may be available, otherwise a SUV or van may be needed. Reimbursement for gas expenditures is always available upon request.

​

Kennel Housekeeping

​

Kennel volunteers help with bathing and exercising our dogs, cleaning the runs and cages, laundering bedding and washing bowls and water buckets. Sometimes special kennel projects are also identified and completed by willing volunteers.

 

Have A Skill or Talent to Share?

​

Are you a skilled writer, a passionate photographer, or a web designer?  If you have a special talent or skill set, please consider volunteering your gift to help save homeless dogs!  Whatever your skills, talents, or interests, there is something you can do to help C.A.R.E. complete its mission.

Play Therapy and Exercise

​

Often dogs arrive who need more personalized care as it relates to socialization, recovery from an injury or learning to walk well on a leash. Other dogs, especially younger ones, benefit from regular one-on-one play time. Our handler helps us to identify these extra needs, and our volunteers help to integrate the recommendations into the dogs' days.
